Come to our next Meet. I am usually the one that organizes them in the Tri-State Area. Granted, there won't be one for a while, but once the Spring rolls around, I'll most likely organize one, as everyone always asks me to. And yeah, I'll buy the first round.
Spring?? WTF? Thought you guys all drive your cars year round. :thumbsdown:

We do. Enjoy! Blizzaks on the stockers with DSC off. Even off, these tires still stick too good.

Yeah, great when you're driving in an empty parking lot with no obstacles to avoid. Try being that brave on the street with other cars around. Puhhllleasse....

Here's a great thread created by EuroCarHam last year. I just laughed pretty hard and then got very hungry for some BC!

I would like to be there for that...twin turbo V-8, 573 ft.lbs. vs. V-10, 383 ft.lbs. It would make for an interesting race. Let us know how the exhaust fumes smell!

Just wait till the Dinan #'s come out on the new M5...you'll have your E60 sold the same day, C. You know you won't be able to resist!

As for the point of this thread, I just think the forum is in a transition period, as is the 5 series. It'll take a few years to really ramp up the number of F10 members, and then things will get cooking again around here. I sure hope so, 'cause I am bored!

*As a footnote, I just spent the last 45 minutes digging my car out of the snow...got stuck in my own driveway. So much for my 3D Wintersports...everything has its limits I guess.
