Congrats, hfh!

Not sure I've ever shared a pic of the X5. Here's recent one.

Mineral Green. Often looks like silver variants, depending on the light.

There isn't anyone on this site that wouldn't be enamored of it.

It's good, but not $12k better than MSRP. That's just whack!

As long as you aren't staring at any big ticket maintenance bills you might as well keep it, Theo. Looks great, and still relatively low mileage. So I'd ride that wave all the way to the beach till it stops running.

Sadly I agree with you.

The first M3 I've never had even a small inkling of desire for. But I can say that across the board for the entire line-up at BMW.

Used to be I'd take a nice Sunday drive once a month or so and find a reason to stop by the BMW dealer and dream about one or more models on the lot. But now I fear Sunday's will never, ever be the same.

The 2 series is definitely the last vestige of hope in my eyes. But somehow I get the feeling that BMW will find a way to dork it up, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

And the E90:

These are just from my blackberry as I was cleaning them up today. I'm planning on taking some good pictures tomorrow and post the classifieds in the next day or so.

Yes, I put the Vaders in a couple of years ago when the original seats got too worn. They fit fine, look good and are mostly more comfortable.

Here's a pic from my photoshoot today.


There are 62 more of every detail of the car here:
