Well since saturday the 530's been in the shop getting some new suspension, brakes and tires. I was expecting to get it back monday, then yesterday. When I went to the shop the car was sitting on the lift without any front wheels. So today was the day to get it back. I wait, call around 4 and learn it is now at goodyear getting aligned. According to the guy at goodyear, he's going to "try" to get it done today, but he's not making any promises. So yet again I must live another day without my car. The worst part is my replacement car has been a 07' camry.

I gotta say..

Im 20, not far older than u and i feel lucky and yet spoiled to drive these cars.
Appreciate what you have though, some people cannot even afford a Camry.

I did not have the luxury of driving an e60 when i was 16, i used to drive a toyota highlander.

ANYHOW, i had to part with my e60 for a month last winter too! I would miss it! definitely.

But yeah, appreciate the luxury that you have

Yeah but the M-Tech kit is well worth the waiting time to have it painted and installed.

I had my car in the shop for over a week... Since Last monday... It sucks driving a xdrive 328i from a E60 M5... Feels like a go cart...
Miss having my clients say wow "M5 let see you push it!" Damn Steering angle sensor wasn't in stock... I should get it tommorow as they said this since
Monday...

WTF?? You settled for a 328 as a loaner when you have a M5? You should have gotten at least another 5 series!
