To the OP: The new beast is very nice, enjoy her. She is screaming for some rims though Bro
Thanks man I should pick out a set by the next few months but I'm trying to find the right ones with the right price, not trying to rush into anything

Sorry Bro, the others are all gone, bought the first set, traded twice, then bought this set and sold the other. It's been like trading baseball cards when I was a kid

Awesome trio! Can't beat black BMWs (unless they're dirty)

Have you guys driven each other's cars? Any reactions?

Didn't realize you stored your F10 for the winter. With all the snow melting right now in Chitown, there's a ton of potholes everywhere. (I had a lot of close calls today with some real bad ones). Be careful out there.

My E61 is fast with the 300 HP 535,the 550 F10 with 400 HP must be a beast.

What is the difference in weight and 0 to 60 times E60 vs F10( 535 & 550)?

The city isn't all that bad with the potholes, and if it's a big one I tend to remember where they are..I know the suburbs have some pretty rough roads
