So, I've been trolling here for a while now and I've enjoyed this forum very much. Why I haven't registered and participated, I don't know. I'm with my wife yesterday and I see this car parked. I yell at my wife to turnaround and I get this pic. I could not stop staring at this car. It has a very commanding presence. It is one serious looking E60. I was never a fan of black wheels but once you see this baby in person, you'd be impressed too. This guy has very subtle Formula1 innuendos on the front and back. Really cool looking Michelins. No Badges. Colored roundels. Every detail was just awesome right down to the exhuast. I then notice an E60.net sticker in his back door window. Just then, I say to myself, this must be a sign from above. So, here i am. This guy is obviously a member here. Anyone know him? Just want to compliment him and say thanks for inspiring me.

Yup, that's poleposition's ride.
He's got a nice house too, but don't go running out and buy a new house now.

I believe that's also the ACS roof spoiler on there.

I'm sure he will chime in and tell you everything, but I do remember a thread where he was posting pictures of his car. I'll see if I can search for it.
