Yep, I mentioned some watches we had out at our last meet on the e90 forum, some dork said we were poseurs, and good for nothing, ugly rich guys......what? They spend that much on brembos etc,.

Get angus out again next meet, we have to check his combination of supersprints and gruppe m out!!!

Will go to singfai on tues, pls remind me to bring the fishfeed that I produce.

Since my 520i shares the same engine with the 323i, it will be interesting to find out how much difference between my Arqray Quad / Simota Air-Filter / Sprint Booster setup against Angus's Gruppe M & SuperSprint ? Price-wise mine costs about $15K.

Awaiting your new good look next week.
E90 forum <----- let it be
Angus - low profile but heavy mod, he is a good guy compare that "pop" guy.

Sorry for my wording too rough

et, hope you got my pm.

E60 weighs nearly the same as E90 +/-1570kgs(correct me guys to the digit)
because of the use of alu alloy bonnet, wings, suspension, axle etc,.
it was way ahead of its time.
MB only recently started with alu front ends with their S class
