I am here in Northwestern suburbs and more and more I see 5er's around. Definetely a lot of 3's, X3, and X5 around.
I haven't seen your car around.
I would have noticed 166's rolling by me, too.

Its the money and materialistic mentality as stated above. nothing wrong with enjoying the money you work hard for. I figured I would see more BMWs in southern FL, at least in south tampa. holy pretentiousness.
problem solved lol

There are not many 5ers out here either. Since I got my car (July 08) I have seen 1 other 545i sport, 1 535i sport and 2 550i sport. I see a few 525is, 528is and 530is maybe once a week. Other than that its pretty dead, out here everyone likes trucks :thumbsdown:

Haha, there are more German cars in a 5 mile radius around my house than I could see in a week IN Germany. At least speaking for Berlin, people drive a lot of 'other' brands.
I think easily one in 10 cars here is a BMW. My car's about as special here as an '87 Ford Taurus in New Jersey

I drive a lot, I do. What I notice is lots of Bimmers around here, but not a lot of E60's. My car is straight-up UNIQUE around here in Barrington, IL. / Chicago area. I see tons of 3 series, lots of X3's and X5's, even lots of 7 series, but NOT A LOT of 5ers. Whats the deal? Seems like everyone in California has a 5 considering way over 50% of the people on this board are from CA, (I think).
So whats the deal!?!?
