Actually, just before my E60, I drove the same car as this:

JDN, take off the flaps and add shadowline and you've got an exact copy of my 1998 car!

To be honest I didn't think a lot (not my wife, family or anything).. The only thing I can remember that I was very very surprised initially and then started to react to the situation by countersteering my car. Last thing I can remember is the grey container of the truck coming at me and then nothing.....

I woke up and there was an fireman sitting next to me and I asked him what had happened because I did not know where I was.. Next thing I was me trying to get out of the car and the fireman telling me not to try because I was really stuck in the wreckage.. So I picked up hot pieces that were laying between and on my legs and threw them over the door so I wouldn't burn myself...

that's it basically..

Dennis, we are all glad that you managed to survive such a crash. It was meant to be.

Those were the exact wheels I had on my 1998 car. My photo with the E39 and E60 was with my 2001 car...

You should have moved those wheels to your 2001, IMO.

At first, I thought the same thing. After a while, I didn't mind the 2001 wheels. They added a bit of class to the car and helped to cloak the appearance of the true beast within..
