Anybody in a gray (Space?) M5 with CF roundels on I-44 headed west near Lindbergh in a bit of a hurry at about 2:45 PM today? IL plates starting in KCT. Let's just say photo-taking would not have been prudent. Thanks for helping me exercise my Sprint Booster!

I've been seeing a bunch of e60s lately, just didn't have a camera. Here's an LCI 528 X-Drive that I parked next to at St. John's Mercy Medical Center in Creve Couer today around 2:30 PM. Anybody?

Two e60s side by side would be rare, if not nonexistent, in my corner of the world. I could upload a photo of my car next to a John Deere

To some, I believe it is west of NY and east of CA. When I lived in CO, we called that the midwest as well. I think it's a moving target, the application of which is in the eye of the beholder.

I also lived in Central America, which was even more confusing for some of my geographically-challenged friends.

Is the guy from Bloomington/Normal IL with the modded space grey e60 anywhere on here? Its lowered, roof and trunk spoiler, on some aftermarket wheels, debadged. I'm the black sapphire 550 that was at the lights while you were at the gas station.

Sorry don't usually have a camera with me.

I live in Bloomington - though apparently it isn't normal, it's in MN.
