I live in Atlanta, but have family in Newark. I've had my e60 in OH 2 times this year (last week to Columbus in fact), and 1 time last year...
Can I hang?

I saw a couple of jokes with flying. I only saw one insult.

Add one more post for the Buckeye State. Haven't had my 545i for all that long, but I do enjoy driving it. Just have to get all the little bugs worked out with the dealership. Go Bucks!!! Beat the Irish!!!

My Ride: 2006 530xi. Deep green with beige interior. 6 speed manual. Premium package.
Had my first Ohio weather experience today with my xi - rain/s;eet at a temp of 28 degrees - the roads were ice
Drove carefully home but when I got in our neighborhood at 6am - and no one else ther I decided to see how well the xi does
and it does great - floor it, took corners to fast and tried to break it loose and no dice - up hill driveway covered with ice and went up without a hitch
there is NO WAY a rear wheel drive could have done this
But for stopping the old rules still apply

Here's my contribution to this thread but may I ask why are you guys talking about catching up to the Singapore thread when we (the Hong Kong thread) is still cataching up. Don't you think that's one step ahead of yourself.
Well looks like no one know the Hong Kong thread existed, good luck catching up to the Singapore thread though. I don't even know if our thread will get close to the Singapore thread.

We in NE Ohio are always talking about catching up tp the rest of the world and "next year" - especially in our sports teams - see Cleveland Browns, Cleveland Indians, and Cleveland Cavaliers (though the Cavs may do something this year!)
