My Ride: E60 M5, F85 X5M
LOL!!!
Was on the 87N ramp onto 101N yesterday morning going to work and was next to a black 525 and black 530. The 530 had black wheels. Looked over at him but his windows were tinted.

Admittedly I am one of the people who flaked out on this meet, but not by my own will. I was getting my kitchen remodeled and was supposed to have demolition done Sat morning. I was planning to make the lunch but unfortunately it didn't go so smooth and I ended up kicking the granite guy out of my house when I caught him stealing some confidential papers on my counter. At least I caught him before he turned my kitchen upside down.
Anyway, my car just hit 15K miles and I want to take it down for its 15K mile service plus a few other tweaks. I was hoping one of you South Bay locals can give me some recommendations on which dealer and more importantly which SA to talk to. I noticed BMW_Tech over at the bimmerfest forums is a tech for Steven's Creek, he seems like a real stand up guy but I've heard some pretty harsh things about Steven's Creek.
Thanks, hope to see you at the next meet.

Coming home this weekend, I was on 580E in Livermore and saw a lowered murdered out black 645i, license plate SIC45. It was dark, so I assumed it was blacked out with black wheels but I did catch the red time attack lip. Tried to get in for a closer look but took off.

My Ride: '04 Jet Black
Once upon a time it had chrome wheels... 'til i joined this forum :)
I'm on a sighting spree... saw a black E60 with chrome rims and m-tech gettin a car wash at Corwood in Dublin yesterday around 5:30. Saw a grey one today with a European rear plate behind the real plate on 680S in Fremont around 9AM. Looked like a white dude driving.
