<![CDATA[New Member - West Bend]]>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!

Pretty common car though, there are quite a few floating araound.

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!

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.

What 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.

So I'm a fan already.
