Hello Everyone,

So, I am deployed to Afghanistan and I am a proud new owner of a 2007 BMW 550i.. I have yet to see it in person but I drool over the pics at least 1.6 thousand times a day... My wife traded my Audi in for the BMW that i have almost always wanted (M5 really wanted). I am stoked to get home and rub her down, (the car... ok the wife too).. I am looking forward to participating and getting to know some folks on here that share the same passion for cars period... I have never been one to hate on a brand or anything like that.. If you like pinto's I am good with that.. lol.. I am hoping to be home soon so that I can play with my new toy!!

Welcome to the forum. I see you live in Lakewood. I live in Puyallup. I also have a 07 550i. You will love it. I'm guessing you are stationed at JBLM. I'm in the Air Force and work on McChord. Stay safe

Hello, I do work on JBLM and live maybe 7 minutes from the front gate of McChord.. You have a sick looking 550 if I may say so.. I am beyond excited to get home and play with my new toy!! We will have to hook up and talk shop!
