Nice. I've always loved the shape of the 6. It's really a classy classic. One nit pick - it ain't a "Beemer" unless it has 2 wheels. A 4 wheel BMW is a Bimmer. There, just saved you from huge embarassment if you show up at a cars and coffee some day and refer to your "Beemer".

Rgds,

He had to be doing 130mph on the exit.

That's the problem BMW's, they make me drive like a hooligan

Yeah, but you gotta have fun doin' somethin'!

Yep, this is good fun, my quest to own all the cars that were hanging on my wall as posters when I was 13 is almost complete

Yeah, like racing a Camaro SS LT1 @140+ in a new 5 series and beating it like a Chinese gong the second time.

It looks like an exciting money-pit to me.

X2 on the SS Camaro.

Great looking cars, a friend picked up a running and driving but very shabby aborted track car, project 633csi for $250. He put used tires on it and has been beating on it.

Love me some 6er's. Nice buy!
