My Ride: 2008 528i Space Gray Metallic, Black Interior, Dark Poplar Wood, Sport & Premium Pkg, Comfort Access, Xenon, Heated Seats
Hi all. I'm a new member and loving my new 2008 528i. I bought my first BMW in 2000 (1997 Red Z3 for the wife), then a 328Ci (wife), X5 (me), 328i (wife), and I don't think I truly understand BMW's until I purchased my 528i. The Z3 is nice (still have it), and I enjoyed the sportiness of the X5, but none of my prior BMW's quite match the sporty comfort (if I can say that) of the 528i. I can truy say I no longer mind a one hour drive home anymore! I can't really think of any reason to ever get rid of this car, and I certainly look forward to personalizing it over the next couple of years.
I look forward to interacting with everybody on this list - so far, from all that I have read on the forums this is an amazing group of people!

Welcome! You need to come to the San Luis Obispo Meet on Sat Mar 8th. No better way than to meet some of the members of this board face to face and build lasting friendships.
