9/5/07, going to San Diego on the 405 South near the 710 exit, I saw a M5 wannabe/poser. It was a Silver Gray e60 with Long Beach BMW dealer plates. Dunno if it was a 550/55/530/525 b/c all I noticed was the M5 badge on the trunk and M5 side gills on the fenders. I tried to slow down to take a pic but the guy wasn't driving all that fast. Man, imagine what would happen if a E63 encountered the underpowered fellow?

My Ride: 08' 535i, Space Grey, Prem Pkg, Sports Pkg, 124 wheels, NAV, Comfort Access.
Yesterday I went to this T-Mobile store off Mira Mesa blvd, San Diego. When I got out of the store to leave, I noticed that a black 535 has parked right beside my space grey 535. There are many open slots in the parking lot, but
I guess the diver must thinks that it is funny to park along side another 535 - a true mini mini meet, with only one driver (me).

Haha I was on the right lane going south and you were on the opposite side on the right lane going north... so ya it would be easy to miss... I saw "a" E60 coming up and didnt think much of it till I saw your plate then I flashed twice and ya guess you wernt paying attention.
Though you would have surly recognized my plate... LEGAL plate... unlike someone.
