I'm up for a meet anytime after this weekend when I pick up my car. I'd love to meet some of you guys and check out some of the mods you've done to the cars. I need to get a the car tinted right out the door.
I need some 17" Winter tires too. My 16" on my Benz aren't going to fit from what I've seen on the forum.

Gas question for the Toronto 535 people - what gas do you use?
I'm trying to do what is best for the car (and minimize my chance of fuel system problems), so I'm thinking it's either between Shell 91 (pump says it contains no ethanol), or Sunoco 94 (contains ethanol, but higher octane).
I've read in a couple places that ethanol is the culprit, so I'm tempted to go with the Shell 91, but the Sunoco 94 is much better value (cost wise), and I like the idea of the higher octane.
Thoughts? Suggestions?

I have used Shell V Power (no ethanol) exclusively. It is a Tier 1 fuel and approved by BMW. I used to use the Sunoco 94 in my motorcycle but prefer not to use any ethanol in the 535i.
Cheers!

Thanks for the feedback.
I've only put one tank of gas in so far (car is brand new) - it was Shell 91, and I plan on continuing to use it primarily due to the no ethanol claim. I've read on other forums that this claim may not actually be true, but I'm hoping that even if there are trace amounts of ethanol, that it's lower than other brands.
