My Confucious saying for the day is
Man who walk through airport door sideways is going to Bangkok."
And on the lighter side
Why does a Blonde prefer a BMW over a Chevrolet ?
She can spell BMW.

i think about the way i felt when i test drove it or took it home from the dealer, and when i called my parents, and my best friend to say "you wont believe what the hell i just got". then it hits me that i am behind the wheel of something special.
So true! I was texting pictures to everyone after I signed the dotted line! I need to keep that in mind...

So I was looking online the other day at some 6ers, an M3, even some SLK and S class Mercedes, and admiring those cars thinking to myself, (I just have a lowly 5 series, a lowly 530 at that...)
I had a '97 540i up until a few months ago and it was till turning heads. Beemers are timeless! So charge your glass and lets's make a toast to Long live the Ultimate Driving Machines!
