Ahh, unfortunately, no. As previously mentioned, Ill be in Canada this weekend. Its a bummer since I would REALLY like to meet all of you E60 guys, AND I always enjoy these meets. Please let me know when will be the very next one... Maybe you can give me a sneak peak at a next date?

My Ride: Alpine White 2006 530Xi (SLD)
Yes, I understood you correctly the first time!!! I dont know, but somehow I like to keep it stock. For example, Ive test-driven the 5 with the sports pkg and the active steering, and I disliked it for its "harshness" Chose, instead, non-sport. And the reason I feel the harshness is because Im so used to a softer, more comfortable ride. It is my daily driver, after all! Quality of our roads, tie into the "daily driver" reason. At some point, I will go with the Bilstein HD's all around on the E60, just as I did on my E39. That felt like a semi-sports pkg, w/o the unforgiving ride. Thats a great product, BTW. In summary, SP is not for me, I guess.
but that's just it - to each his own, as they say.Whatever the differences in preferences, I think you've got a great looking car there
