BERM, thanks again.. it is pretty brutal in those other places though.. 
LOL jiio... how could I not have mentioned your lovely avatar... although she's not my type
knox, they are a great resource.. by no means am I bashing them at all, I just felt the dislike big time!
Those other forums are definitely full of modded out bimmers.. I like all that but I also love discussing issues and get opinions from like minded people.

jiio, there was one forum (bimmerfest) that was actually pretty nice (where you greeted me)... they didn't have any mean things to say.. or ignore me like the others... the rest yeah, ignored me or just said that they didn't like the E60's. No big deal.

octee,
Can you please update your profile to include your location? It helps us help you when you ask questions. You don't have to be specific. For example, some people here from LA just say "Socal." Also, mention in your signature what model your e60 is.

From Miami, eh? My g/f and I just saw "Miami Vice" and thought it was pretty good. Better than what I expected. Loved the cars: BMW 650, Bentley, Ferrari, Dodge Charger... that's all I can remember at the moment.

Yup.. that's where I'm at. They filmed the movie mainly in the downtown area and mainly at night so we didn't catch many glimpses of the stars but the traffic sucked every now and then. I read about the 650, it was a white one right? Glad you liked it.. we haven't seen it yet but plan to.

Another Miami E60 owner... Welcome.
In my parking garage, it consist of an 530i/545i/550i about every other car.
Guess I have to update my profile too.
Welcome to the forum... This is an awesome place, and many of the people who responded to your post have already helped me during the first three months of owning my 530i.
Regards,
