Hi there, I am in Adelaide too. First BMW was a brand new 325Ci from Adelaide Motors back in 2003.
In 2004 bought an update X5 Sport 3.0d which I still own. In 2006 bought an 04 545i with 19" Alpina wheels
which I have just recently sold & replaced with a 2004 530i with professional nav for my wife.
Really missed the V8 though so just bought a beautiful 2007 550i professional from BMW Sydney which will be here
next week. Has some great options & cant wait to drive it.
I was at that BMW driver training day last year with you at Mallala & I cant wait to get back out there again.
Might see if I can come in June when you go.

I have seen your car around (old car now by the sounds), the Alpina wheels really stand out. In fact i saw it last week on King Willam Road but maybe that is the new owner.

Conratulations on the new 550, i bet you can't wait to get behind the wheel of her.

Hello, yes I recently sold it to a very nice guy who does property valuations & that would have been him driving it.
I pick up my new 550i on tuesday & really looking forward to playing with my new toy.
In the meantime I will be racing my skyline GTR at Mallala on monday (just put bigger brakes & a set of monoblock forged rays wheels with new Yoko A048s on it so should be a lot of fun)

Had my first ride in a new M5 today, & it was a pedal to the metal blast around Mallala.
Absolutely fabulous car! Fantastic sound & so smooth. Thanks Leburpor, that was awesome.
Also took a ride in an E46 M3cs & that was great straight after the M5.
Had great fun in my Skyline GTR - was keeping up with a mate in his Gallardo S!
Now thats done I am looking forward to picking up my 550i tomorrow...........

Hi fellow Aussies, I am an Adelaide boy living in Boston USA. I currently driving a E60 M5, I plan to return to Australia and take my baby with me as expensive project car. Hopefully I will be able to take it onto the tracks in Adelaide for a bit of fun.

My Ride: 04' 525i in Mystic Blue
Default

Well, just thought i'd introduce myself

Names Alex , have an 03 525i e60, currently live in Melbourne, Southbank in freshwater place. Its right inbetween crown casino and eureka towers. Views are amazing from here. Overlooks the yarra river and the city. Very pretty.

Anyways, its finally nice to see a thread for aussie members, ive always hoped for one but never started one myself. Glad to see someone took the initiative.

Currently, im still a uni student, have another 3-4 years to go before im done with the studies. Meanwhile, considering departing with the 525i and getting the new f10 M5 when it comes out in 2011 or MB cls 65 AMG, any thoughts?

Anyhoo, gtg. Professor's coming over
