Yesterday morning around 9:30AM, I was getting on the northbound ramp to Hwy 87 from Narvaez St (near Capitol Expwy) and saw a black LCI 550 sport getting on at the same time. I think he lives in my neighborhood. Sweet looking car.

...and I thought it was just me, but for some reason, not a lot of friendly e60 folk in the Bay Area (except for forum members)...

What an ass. When I ran into that 550 mentioned in my post above, he was merging in and I let him in and he waived thanks. When I drove by him on the freeway, I waived at him and he nodded back.

Hey did that grey M5 exit Capitol Expwy? I've seen a grey M5 coming from Communication Hill once in a while but I think it was an Asian girl/lady driving.

I exited Capitol Expwy, but the grey M5 continued on 87 South...

Yesterday around 1PM on the 4th level of the parking structure by Best Buy at Santana Row, I saw a Titanium Silver 550 with M Tech kit, Hamann rear diffuser, Remus quad exhaust and 166 wheels. I think it's member fishindude (Keith)?

None at all or no modded ones? There are plenty of regular E60s on the roads around here.
