    Cory, I meant to ask you what suspension setup you're running on the 740i

    I am on stock e24 m6 springs front and kyb's all around. Rear is original e32 springs, the ride feels completely stock.. I think for the 750's it's a nice option to even the height out and not mess with the lad. Lowered the front around 1 inch maybe a bit more :]

    The car still looks nice! I'm a bit disappointed that that I didn't manage to meet you.

    Thanks to the photographer and the person who had the idea for this shoot: Marissa and Cory.

    Well, that's one of the things that my car would actually need.

    Yep! This time I turned the trip to the Vintage into a ten-day vacation with multiple stopovers during which I drove 4040 km (ca. 2510 miles). Let's see about next year, the amount of vacation days and money that goes into this isn't insignificant, but it was a lot of fun and definitely worth it, so I'm tempted to do it again.

    two 3's one 5 three 7's
    Looks like an awesome time and I'm jealous I'm not able to make it. I think the only other time I can recall this many e32's in one meet would be in the Fatherland or in one of our Master Shoguns gatherings.

    We need more pics please!!!!!

    How about next year? "West Coast" sounds a bit far, though...

    The gatherings of the German 7-forum naturally have a lot more. At the 2016 annual gathering we had 116 cars including 21 E32. Click here and here for some videos that were shot during that event.
