REKIII Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 (edited) Ramplesauce actually pointed me here (so it's his fault if I cause trouble:D) through a CL ad. Pretty sad that I enjoy Beemers (I know, bimmer, remember, I cause trouble) so much and have never come accross this site. Pretty cool finding other local enthusiasts. I rarely see other performance oriented BMW's on the road, sure the soccer moms in their convertable 3 series or the excecutive in his brand new 5 or 7 are common sites, but very few I would consider 'cool' I'm an old guy with kids, so I couldn't get a boy racer 3 series. Went with an e39 5 series with M trim. My trim package included the bad ass 400hp engine as well. Here is a pic. Hope to see some of you guys on the road!

Brian. Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 E39 M5 is what Alex Roy used in his epic run across america. So I'm a fan already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
straight6pwr Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 I'm an old guy with kids, so I couldn't get a boy racer 3 series. Went with an e39 5 series with M trim. Bob i guess i should have some kids so i have to 'settle' for an m5. welcome, sweet car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan... Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 You should probably post more pics BTW... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REKIII Posted June 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 More pics....I looked to see what was currently on my photobucket. Timmayfest 2011: Brake install: My car next to one of my old neons. 2nd owner after me was at a wedding I was at: This weekend I'm heading to Timmayfest 2012 so I'll have pics from that.

Ryan... Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 That's certainly an improvement over a neon lolWhat lip is that? The color, ride height, wheels, and lip are all very nice. Its often hard to improve upon the M5's styling w/o going over the top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REKIII Posted June 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 The lip is actually 2 lips, just the little corner thing on each side, They are CF Hamman peices. Well, knock-off becasue they don't make the real ones anymore. The car is lowered on KW V3 coliovers and the wheels in the first pic are 19" TSW's which I still have and the dark wheels are a set of 19" HRE's.I love the blacked out look, all my vehicles right now are black.

Ryan... Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Very nice, I do like the TSWs slightly more. Black on black always looks nice, especially on a mean sedan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian. Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Very nice, I do like the TSWs slightly more. Black on black always looks nice, especially on a mean sedan. Agree'd. Add's to that mean look. I like it! the CF Hamman rep's look awesome too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Full Banana Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 pretty sure I saw you driving north on 43 yesterday around 4pm. looking good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REKIII Posted June 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Not me. 4pm that day the car was tucked in my garage waxed and shined awaiting Tomorrows departure to Timmayfest. Pretty common car though, there are quite a few floating araound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Full Banana Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Huh, that's odd. What made me think it was you what that I saw similar looking stickers on the window in the same place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
