Excited to be part of the E60 Family

Hi everyone,
I went to a dealership in new jersey a couple of weeks ago to pick up a used 2006 5 series but wasn't happy with the dark color due to too many visible swirl marks. Next day, I walked out with new 535I, which was double the price of what I wasn't looking to spend. It all happened so fast, it's a blur.
But now I'm addicted to this forum and can't wait to start the mods. I love this car and the way it handles. Many members in this forum seem very genuine and knowledgeable. I'm looking forward to the meet and greet up in Bear Mountain this saturday. Hope to meet many of you there.
Sammy
