My Ride: 550i Sport
Model Year: 2007
Hi all - first time poster here. I just traded in my much loved 200 540i Sport on a 2007 CPO 550i Sport. I hated to see the 540 go, but it was getting up in age. The 550 is amazing - it took some searching as there are not too many around in the Sacramento area, but I got a sweet deal on a 2007 CPO model. Black with black interior, A/T, pretty much every option you can get. Not going to get too much in to the mods for a while - I have 2 Porsche 928s that I am busy modding away at the moment. Anyways - I look forward to hanging out here!

Congrats and welcome! That looks like my 550 except it's a '06 with beige interior. Where at in Sac? I lived in El Dorado Hills for 9 years. Been gone from there for 2 years now, and miss it pretty bad

Thanks for the welcome guys - I find this board a lot more active than Bimmerforums where the e60's are concerned, so I am happy to have found this.
As for the 928's - I'm always happy to post some car porn
