Well......I don't know that many people outside this forum know about the red reflectors.....I've NEVER seen another E60 in my area with them......and I know there aren't any other forum members within about 100 miles of me.......but I see this guy doesn't have his E60.net stickers!!
Look closely my man, cling is mounted on the right rear mini window. Can't believe Jiio caught me. Very cool!!

Great thread

Haha... This Sightings thread finally paid off... I found a fellow e60 member's ride!

545i now,
You wouldn't have seen my car b/c I went to La Jolla Center with a coworker's ride.

That's a cool thread!
I don't see many E60s in my area let alone modded ones . Well, it seems like there are way more E90 and E65/66 on the road, is it like that in most places?

Yes, I see A LOT of E90s here; probably several each time I'm out on the road.

From initial looks it would appear to be a non-sport 525i with 17" wheels. It's quite funny how this thread is somewhat related to bimmer32's thread "How often do you attempt to identify another e60?"

Agree vegas.. the other 3 I saw, same thing, pretty much stock. One of the colors though was that bronzey brownish.. you rarely see those here but I kinda blew by it before I remembered my camera and the sightings thread. LOL

I know, very related threads...

It looks like I'm getting obsessed with tracking down and taking pictures of the e60's I see.

I tried to get a better shot but this one looks like he had some work done... not 100% sure. It was a 530i though... funny, he had the black plastic thingies.
