I have been totally almost four years here so I have got used food/eating in here.

I have seen few E60 in Shanghai, but now I have to find a price. Local made is much cheaper than imported cars and BMW have factory hear. How nice it would be to drive either E60 or E90 here also. And of course to go to test it at the Shanghai F1 circuit.

Don't care much about price, cause someone else will pay . One good thing being in project management busines.

Sabine? The BMW ///M5 Ring Taxi Driver?

That German chick is indeed Sabine who holds records at the ring and has been driving the same circuit several times a day since she was 14 or something like that. She can drive the ring with her eyes closed.

Not the ring, but had a great day at BMW's Rockingham track. They had the entire range of cars inc M5 and M3CSL's. Got to drive all 3 laps each then join the Q again for more.
