Sorry NO E60, so you guys have 2 choices:

1. kick me out

2. accept me as a non E60, but former E34 owner, now 130i

Serious, I?ve been reading around so many forums while ordering the 1, this one here is just awesome, thats why I decided to join in. I am also active (especially today geh whiz) in two other german forums. Also, I lived in the states sooo long and its just nice to "speak" with americans (and oll others of course!) again.

Soo, take me or leave me...

I believe this is a Forum for anyone who likes E60's!

That should be enough and for shure I will not be the one who casts the first stone,
nor any stone, for that matter!

I say again: Welcome dude_in_germany to this great Forum!

Hi All,
I'm a newbie here and just wanted to say hi to all.
I am a former owner of an e90 and have now moved to an e60. It's only been a week and I really love the car.
I enjoyed the contributors over at e90post.com, but have seen that you guys seem to have a good discussion going on and frequent contributors as well.
I look forward to your input and help while I learn more about my car.
Good Luck,
~Petercat

From one newbie to another: ENJOY YOUR NEW CAR!

Welcome Petercat.

One quick question - do you think the interior fit and finish of the E60 is better/worse than that of the E90?
They certainly seem to be equal to me... Both have a nice air of sophistication and sportiness. I guess the only two things I favor of the e90 was the cup holders (better mechanism) and the center console had a nice flow to the design. Everything else seems pretty equal to me.
