My Ride: 2005 545i /w Sport pkg - SMG - Nav - Premium pkg - PDC - Ready to begin my modding! =)
Morning Fellas (or evening dependant on where youre at! 
)
I was just curious to know, especially from the Senior Members on here, are you addicted???? Since I picked up my first E60 a couple months ago, I cant stop looking at this board, as I check it daily, almost like email. I like to see what I can learn about my new car, and also offer help to anyone who's coming on here, as others have helped me. My previous ride that I had for the last 4 years was and Audi, and I never found myself surfing the Audi boards?!?!?!
So I wonder........is it the car, or the folks on here that make it so addicting???????
Feel free to chime in with any thoughts...........
Happy Motoring!

I check this board about every 30 minutes during the day. I can't get enough of it. I have learned so many things, got answers to so many questions, and laughed so much that it is an awesome site. Better than the Audi boards I used to frequent and better than some of the other BMW boards as well. Great group.

Been on here since January...defintely check the page numerous times daily. I would say the passion for the e60 brought us here, but the people/members keep us coming back. Anyway...you'll see it every so often said when a new member is being welcomed.."welcome to your new addiction". That statement is spot on...anyway...see you guys around the forum...

Look at VT, he sold his 545 and got a Benz and he's more active than ever on this forum. Same with me, when I upgraded from my 545 to my M5 I thought I'd be on M5board more but no, the friendships I've made here kept me here. I actually think I'm on here more than the Mods and Admins.

My Ride: 08 550 Carbon Sport Almost everything factory, but no sound upgrades.
Definte senior ...
Without Irish Eyes and Iceman I have dropped back to 3 times daily! If we lose p-fuck [sorry I mean f-puck] I may drop back to twice.
Is fun, informative, sometimes an overkill on particular topics and very addictive. The magnet for me is as with kscarrol
The mods and admins hold it all together.
