My name is Rob and I'm both sad and happy as I type this intro.
I picked up an '06 550i in pristine condition (it didn't hurt that my brother-in-law is a BMW tech and had worked on the car I bought since the original owner bought it at his dealership). That is the "happy" part. The "sad" part is I had to bid adieu to my '01 740i Sport. It was fun while it lasted!
I live in northeastern MD and have also had a '98 323is in addition to the aforementioned BMW's. Here's a pic of the recently departed and I'll post pics of the new girl once I get her cleaned up. But she's a silver gray auto with gray leather, a Sport and has premium audio w/ Logic7, sirius satellite radio, cold weather package as well as navigation.
I look forward to reading and hopefully contributing to the forum.
Best,
Rob
