    Saw a super clean blue early model e30 325 that was really low in Germantown. Also, there is a shop in Omro that I drive past a lot and it always has some nice bimmers out front. Yesterday there was a red e30 m3 that was half under a tarp or something, made me so jealous

        1969 BMW 2002 Spotted at the Iola Car show this past weekend. This car is from Stevens Point...the same town as me. With only a population on 20,000 I'm guessing it doesn't get out much since I've never seen it.

                  Then saw this M4 at Sendic's in Hartland and left him a wibimmers card.

                    Now who's little devil is this??? Spotted at Bregstroms Porsche, Jag, and Range Rover in Appleton. I wonder if he gets just as many funny looks with a rack as I do.

                      Saw this car there too. Was curious what the "Supercharged" stickers were all about. Never got a chance to see what was under the hood...

                        Yesterday going north on 39/90 I saw a burgundy Bavarvia 3.0s around Edgerton and a LRP M3 between Lodi and Portage.

                          I had an older gentleman stop me at the gas station yesterday morning to talk to me about my 335i and tell me how nice it looked and how great it sounded.  He proceeded to tell me that he's had some BMW's but probably nothing I have ever heard of so I asked "Like what?".  He asked if I knew what a 2002 was... then told me about his Florida Green 2002 which he sold to buy his 84 e28 520i euro with the manual trans that he purchased from a Dr. in Georgia who he referred to as a "cheap bastard" who did a european delivery and ordered it as a base model.

                          He continued to tell me about going to 5er fest every year except for 2009 when his Dr. wouldn't reschedule his heart surgery.

                          The guy could have talked my ear off all day but he realized I was on my way to work.  He made sure to point out that he is retired and would be returning home to read his paper lol.

                            It wasn't the Bahama Beige 520i that shows up to Lake Mills was it? That gentleman is nice and also talks your ear off haha.

                              It very well may have been lol.  He said the e28 was shit brown then laughed and mumbled the actual name of the color.

                                why is it that people who talk your ear off are also the people that can't read body language or facial expressions to figure out you've had enough?

                                saw a nice late model e30 cabrio driving down lincoln memorial today with an older gentlemen at the wheel.

                                also noticed that Concours had an e24 and 2002 in the front windows. they should be in the center of the showroom!  o wait, then people will wonder why the rest of the cars are so ugly.

                                  And sadly those two cars are driven once a year :( the tii is a full restoration and the 635csi is all original with like 55k on it.

                                  Sidenote: Porsche has the 919 and RSR on display at the Concours showroom on silver spring for anyone interested. I would believe they head up to road America tomorrow or Friday at latest.

                                        I met the guy with the M235i at big bear tire when he was getting those Enkei's mounted, looked great and really nice guy.
