Ha ha! Kind of...

My phone sits in a pouch that hangs from the a/c vent... you gotta be quick on the draw
Ah, I see, mine is always in my pocket. It's always connected to my BT so I never bother bringing it out

last night, as I was going back to my office at around 7PM on Century Park East, this dude in a space gray 550i rides my ass. when I braked to turn into my parking structure he got pissed and honked at me and gunned it. if you're on here, what a joke.

This past Sunday I saw a Jet Black 545i (I think) with M-tec kit, and I think wheels. Had a Euro-Rev license plate frame. You were passing by the Cerritos Mall on 183rd street in Cerritos at about 2pm or so. I was in my white Honda S2000 to your left .

It was me! I surprised I'm not spotted more often.. I feeel like I live in my car...



Sweet! I'm 1/1 in this sightings thread, hopefully more to come. I think I remember you had a Hamann front lip too and gloss black, flat black, or gunmetal center wheels with polished lip, and RD sport spoiler? (Edit--ok those are you mods since I just noticed they're in your sig heh)

When I first saw your car pass by me I was like holy crap someone stole my car, it looks almost identical. Then I saw your spoiler and wheels and gave a sigh of relief .

All in all your car looked sweet! I didn't realize how nice modified E60's really look on the road since you never get to see what your own car looks like heh.
