Hi All

Is there anyone here that lives in Vancouver BC and has an E60 with SMG transmission???

If so, I would like to contact you if possible.

Thanks

All the Best

Would a local BMW dealer have an SMG equipped car on the forecourt ?

Rody, I'd love to come back to LA but there's not enough time this trip . I do visit usually at least once a year, so next time I'll let you know. I'm a film nut and always stay at the Universal Sheraton (I have an annual pass for the studios... ) I usually camp out in the Citywalk cinemas for the first day watching anything and as much as I can, then into the park for the rest of the time. My wife tells me I'm sad....

Are you in the movie industry, Hobi? While I was in Vancouver yesterday, there were some movie shots at Dunsmiur and Hornby next to the Le Soleil Hotel where I stayed.

Well that definitely was NOT me at Dunsmuir and Hornby yesterday!!! I was in my hotel room editing video footage on my Mac...

So you'll let me take apart your car eh???? The SMG shifter conversion is easy...even the cat in Meet the Fockers can do it ... !
