Newbie
I've been following this and other forums for awhile, hoping to get more info on what car to get. Well, let's say this one didn't help. It's more about what to do than what to drive, which is great!!! Seems like a great group up here and I'm looking forward to meeting all of you.

As for the ride, I was hoping for a 6sp with great handling, I picked up an E55. Came from a Supra TT 6sp and a 540i 5sp, but my first baby (due any day) was a big factor.

Any other E55's up here? I've seen a couple in the pictures.

Any good shop or SA recommendations? Or any to stay away from?

You can normally find me on the golf course or tennis courts, now I'm running errands to take the beast out.

Here it is. First time posting a picture, hope it works. I'll need to work on personalizing it.

No problem. Welcome and Nice ride. Hopefully in your lurking you learned that we are a tad bit sarcastic here so don't take it too seriously

Bring on the sarcasm, but I'll warn you, I can be slow sometimes.
So for RTC, is that every weekend, what time?
