Don't know about any of you other UK members but I only realised when I saw one that I hadn't actually ever seen a 545i on the road.
When it came towards me I expected the chrome grills to be a DIY fit on a 6 cylinder model.

Is it just me or are there a lot more around?

In Sweden I spot at least two 545 a week. I've seen a couple new M5s too...

There's another black one that lives near me, she has the sports package. We always wave and smile whenever we see each other because obviously we both have great taste in the cars we chose to drive...

But true, I really don't see many of the V8's...

We should start a Tri-state 545i owners crew!

Yeah, she's kinda hot. Asian, honey colored skin, pretty smile/face. She definately scores a few extra points for the car though...
