My Ride: Performance Center Delivery May 19, 2006: 2007 BMW 550i, Black Saphire, Beige Interior with Poplar Wood, Sport Package, Cold Weather Package, Comfort Access, Navigation, Power Shades, SMG, M Aero Package, Rear Heating,
I noticed there are quite a few Chicago owners and people waiting on delivery. I wanted to see how many would be interested in a meet and greet. I am expecting to take performance center delivery of my 550i on May 19th so some time after that would be cool. Any one interested? 
The wait is killimg me!!

Yeah, someone promised a few drinks and food last time. YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!! I felt I was entering the world of martinis, the Monanco jet set, parties with Jenson Button and Fernando Alonso, and hot women (um check, wife is safely in the kitchen). And then, without warning and any compassion, the host just dissappears from the board without trace.
Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm up for it and it will be great fun. While my E60 can beat up yours, a nicely spec'd E60 in any color warms my heart every damn time.
Lets do it!!!!
Got chewing gum for everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!CVT Benhogan

Everyone, I have a idea.... I own a couple restaurants in the southwest suburbs. I will be more than happy to host. My second location is under remodeling (re-opening in May) and is located in Downers Grove... first location is takeout/delivery only so no seating and no bar... but the second one has full bar
.I should have my 550i by next week.. can't wait!

Very cool I order from your take out restaurant a lot. I live on the border of Naperville and Bolingbrook on Boughton. If every one else is interested in the offer, I would not mind meeting the owner of the restaurant responsible for me gaining quite a few pounds!!
Thanks for the offer Dawyeah. How does this sound to everyone?
I am also OK with waiting till June so that we all have our beast to ohhh and awww about.
