Yep - sold the 540i/6, to another board member whom I will let divulge it at his discretion.

It's been an awesome couple of years reading and sharing web space with you all (most of you), and I want to again thank those of you who took (and still take) the time to offer tips, DIYs and advice. Your efforts and contributions are invaluable.

I'm migrating over to the Z4 board. Picked up an '04 Z4 3.0 yesterday - med blue (Toledoblau) on beige. A damn fine-looking car.

I'll still be lurking from time to time. Best to everyone in their BMW love affair(s)! You're a great bunch of guys (and girl) :buttrock

How's it drive compared to the 540?

Light & Tight. Still 6 gears, though. Couldn't have an auto in a roadster.

Snake, I'll absolutely keep that in mind. Thx.

No need to abandon us just because you've sold the car.

I don't know if you're aware or not, but Filmy is actually a professional actor with legit credits to his name. It wasn't a joke.

I Lol'd@ the Lol'd. I'll still be around...

I should be seen in the upcoming "The Green Hornet", which comes out in January, as a lawyer in a news interview (about the death of Seth Rogen's father). I've heard they used my footage on a monitor in another scene, so the odds are very good they won't cut me out.

And being in Austin isn't helping my acting work (not that I thought it would). I may be back in LA soon. :) and :(. Los Angeles is a love-hate thing with me but I miss being a part of it all.

Good luck with the new ride. :thumbup: Good on ya for staying in the BMW fold. And +1 on Ben's comment about leaving just 'cause you've sold your E34. Heck, I've been hanging out in the E24 subforum for ages since selling my 6er. :D

That looks really clean! Glad it has a proper third pedal as well.

Think you'll miss the (relative) practicality of the 540?

Post count means nothing. Gary's an awesome board member and will be both sorely missed and always welcomed back.
