all the other cars on the road would get off. I drive around thinking about how fun it would be if there were no other cars, no lights, no stop signs, etc. Goodness that would be fun.

Hey, a guy can dream....

This is common BMW owner's thought that they own the road
Same as Mercedes ones.

With my E39 540i/6, on the highway I used to feel that everyone was a sleep at the wheel. This is something I felt on a daily basis. Around the same time I had that feeling I noticed I was close to tripple digit speeds. This is the biggest reason for me to get a 530i. I think I need 12 step support group. I've already taken the first step.

Wait a minute.....I thought E60.net was a 12-step support group?? You mean all the rest of you aren't here because of court orders too??

Actually when I come home really late from parties in L.A. it gets really close to nobody on the freeway. This is around 4:00-5:00 AM on sunday mornings.

But around 4:00-5:00 PM on the weekdays, I wish I could blow everybody up on the freeway

It really is amazing how effortless the 550 reaches three digits. You barely feel it, too.

LOL.
This is kind of like that great line about "anyone driving slower than me is an IDIOT, and those who drive faster than me are MANIACS!"
