In my area the 550 definitely pulls a lot of attention, especially from the ladies 
I've had females whistle at me and give me the thumps up while I'm pumping gas. My previous car was a modded g35 coupe, and the only heads it would turn was men :thumbsdown: The only thing I wonder is if these females are really snapping their necks for the beautiful lines that the e60 has, or is it just mere $$$$ they see because we are driving Bimmers?
I'm still in my 20's and young girls in their 20's are the easiest targets with these cars, because they are so materialistic. I appreciate the attention from them, but I bought this beast because its looks are stunning and the drive is amazing, next stop is the almighty M5

driving a 2004 you would think i wouldn't get looks, etc. But to be honest there is everything in my loft complex from range rovers, MB, audi, acura. I get props on my car a lot. it is black and i keep it ultra clean. can't wait to put my wheels on, etc and then it will stand out even more. The e-60 is a GREAT looking car and I absolutely think it gets a lot of attention in upstate NY still!

not in LA cause every third car is a bright colored lambo or a bugotti. i never understood that out here though there is tons of traffic over here all the time why have a car that goes 200 miles an hour because you like the color lime green and your car looks like a skittle... Sorry for the rant..... this lime green lambo cut me off yesterday it was gross :thumbsdown:

in detroit the entire city is about custom cars...99% of them are american made or american muscle so yea....when people see modded E60s they turn heads...but a lot of detroit car culture is about turning heads. tons of people check out my car...esp due to my exhaust notes...
once i put these new wheels on going from 19s to 20s...im sure even more heads will turn.

I am pretty oblivious to these things, since I am mostly lost in my own world of thoughts most of the time 
But on occasions I do see the very obvious people staring. My guess though, is because of the Orion angel eyes.
