Hello ladies and Gents!
My name is Mark and I live in a small town in South Carolina.
My love for German driving machines started back in 1998 when my father let me take the wheel of his (at the time) brand new 98 318is. This was then upgraded to an 02 z4 3.0i when it first came out. The family has always had a love for BMW and I knew one day I would own one of my very own. I have worked hard since college and saved up to purchase one.

Last week I drove 180 miles one way to purchase my first BMW. A 2006 550i all to myself. I must say it is a dream come true and drives like no other car I've ever had.

She needs a few things and some TLC but I'm mechanically inclined and plan on fixing the majority of it myself. The top end was rebuilt 20k miles ago so I'm not all too worried about the engine (Which I tend to baby my cars).
She needs a new coil pack for one of the cylinders and the ARS has a leaky seal on one side.

I look forward to being apart of the community and the DIY section.

Thanks for reading!

-Mark
