My Ride: e36 318i manual convertible top, 5 speed manual, calypso red/black soft top, cassette am/fm radio, heated sand leatherette seats, michelin mxv4 allseason tires (100% stock)
e60 545i sport package, 6 speed manual, sapphire black, 18" 124 wheels bridgestone runflats (summer) 17" rial salerno dunlop runflats (winter) navigation, satelite radio, winter package, PDC, sunshades, wood trim, dakota leather seats (100% stock)
I saw a bright gleaming e60 yesterday evening. It was entombed in crystal clear ice at least 1/4 inch thick from bumper to bumper. Apparently, some foolish soul thought they could wash their car at -5 F . Could everybody in the Chicago area stop for one moment at 10:00 a.m. and participate in a silent prayer to stop the snow so I can have a white Christmas in my clean 5 series? (Participation from people of any and all locations, genders, races, creeds and religious faiths welcome.) Thank you.

LOL. I'm in the Chicago suburbs and I feel your pain, trust me. Each day I look up and say "hmmm, perhaps today is the day I can get the winter-budget $5.00 car wash special to feel semi-clean on the road"
AND THEN BAM!!!!!!!!!!
5 BILLION FEET OF SNOW FALLS.

I pray for just enough break in the weather to get a car wash, and want more snow.
I am having fun with Winter tires and controlled slide!!

I have to agree on the sliding with rear wheel drive. Nothing is more fun than turning DTC off and flooring it through a turn doing controlled slides!!!!!
Oh, and donuts in the parking lot after work. =p
