Here's my 525i turbo. I just realized it is the only picture of the car that I have - taken at the auction house in Japan...

I am going to try and do that this summer. Want to have the M5, the Alpina B10 3.5 and the 850 at the house before I do. Should make for a cool picture.

For the calendar for 2011, I'm going to see if I can get a good shot with the 3 Alpinas, the M5 and maybe the 525i turbo. Or maybe just the Alpinas and the M5. Thoughts?

My thoughts? You are one lucky and/or hard working guy to be able to have all those awesome cars!

Lol - thanks. It's both I think. Good fortune in finding and winning the cars that I have. As for working hard, everyone in my life tells me I work too much but I see my mechanical children as the reward for my hard work. Motivates and inspires me everytime I see them. My plan and hope are to retire long before 65 so I can enjoy more time with my family and my children (human and mechanical)...

Don't know... it came that way. It's pretty light but it is reflective.

A little colour blindness here... but, still thought the cars were cool and might be inspirational... No? :dunno

By the way, I would love to own the garage your car was in, an E-Type? Nice!
