I don't. It's just a car. A damn fine one 
, but a car nonetheless.
My wife, now her I look at all the time. Especially as she walks away from me, the rear view. Even after 26 years of marriage. Yes, I'm a lucky guy.

). Well, this is partly because I had a better looking car before the E60, and partly because the E60 is a very common sight.

My Ride: #1: 2004 545i; 6-speed manual; Sport Package; Mystic Blue with a gray leather interior and Anthracite wood; CWP; Logic 7.
#2: 2010 535xi Touring; Automatic.
The other day I parked next to a silver 545 automatic non-sport package. I love the way my car looks, and as I walked away I tried to figure out just what made mine look so much better? The bigger wheels? I think the lower stance matters. So I used a book to gauge just how much lower my sport suspension is. I think it's .6 inches lower with the sport suspension. It's totally, absolutely measurable at the front air dam. I think that's what makes it so hard to walk away. Crouching there, ready to pounce. Maybe I don't want to turn my back on it because I'm scared of it....
