I've dreamed of owning a bimmer since I was 14 and my mother's second husband drove an M3. Since then, my mother has never *not* owned one (currently a 2003 325 convertible). After owning many other cars, I found a guy in San Francisco who babied his from the day he bought it. Now I finally fulfilled that boyhood dream.

2) 528i
3) E39
4) Aubergine
5) Awesome (not actually optional on a bimmer)
6) None... yet.
7) Comfortable daily driving on the LA freeways.
8) Awards or Accomplishments: finally have a bimmer!
9) Bought in October of 2007. 2nd owner.
