Cool! Signed up with both our cars!

Well, 6 cars showed up. Myself and another 7 club member, Carl, Tim, the guy who was supposedly putting it o, showed up in his E30 project with a friend of his in a nice E28, and the two guys in E39s...

Well, I'm heading down there anyhow at 2:30. The organizer's email inbox is full, so I haven't gotten confirmation. I've been to Clifton park before... it doesn't have to be that bed. ;)

Anyone...

I saw flyers for it in a few local mechanic's shops. Emailed the guy but got an error message. Supposedly it's in Clifton Park in baltimore Sunday from 3pm to whenever. The flyer mentioned, vendors,...

I did not know that you had put the stripes on it. Last I saw you with it (leaving the breakfast in Annapolis) it was still plain gray. Still, I should have recognized it!

Lookin' good!

There are a LOT of BMWs in the parking lot at HQ. I've seen a number of BMWCCA stickers and a couple of CCA license plates besides mine. There's a really nice grey 1 series that parks near me all the...

Question.. if we already have a CCA plate, could we "upgrade" to a newer number as it becomes available?

For example, I have #0565, and I'd like #0740. :biggrin:

Monthly Socials are held all over. I do believe there's one in Fairfax every month. Last one was on the 7th:

The more germans sit in traffic, the more they'll demand cupholders, too. I think the ones in my E38 were the first ones that BMW installed in a car, and it's obvious that they didn't really know...

I dunno if any of them are going to make it out early, since they are mostly coming from Philly and northern VA. Only a couple right now are coming from the local Baltimore area. Go ahead and do the...

Hmm. Sunday would be interesting, as Sunday afternoon is the "big" 7 series meet at Security Square Mall (with follow up tour up to dinner in Owings Mills).

I'd love to come out, but I have appointments both mornings this weekend. :frown:

I've talked to pseto and zchild about this last weekend, but I've started an area owners group for the E38 7 series here in Baltimore, and am gathering 7s from around the area for get togethers and...

Very cool! Glad to hear it came in that day. I know how excited you were to get out of there Saturday and go find out if it was in! No go and put some miles on it!!!

They are on both sides of Brokenland Parkway, just after you get off of 32 (both on the same side of 32), so they are easy to get to. I'll be heading out at 7:45 or so, and will have my phone on...

If the weather holds out Saturday, I'll be seeing Paul at 8:15 at the park and ride. Still trying to get more 7ers to show up.

I think a number of the guys on the e38.org board are also CCA members, but some aren't. And I know that most of the local 7 series owners I'm going to be trying to recruit aren't (yet).

I need to...

Turns out Saturday or Sunday morning will work. I have something Sunday afternoon at 3 pm, but I think I can get some more of the 7s out on Sunday.

We've had 7 series meets based on the membership of the boards at e38.org. The most recent was a meet in Philly of a bunch of us east coasters. I'm trying to put togehter a specific Baltimore area...

I'd love to come along. I'm gonna try and get some more area 7 series owners out, too (they seem to be reticent, as most of the BMW Club socials tend to be filled with 3 series and late model owners...

While I already have 0565, would there be a way to update it to 0740 when that set of numbers comes around (and at this rate, how long might that be?)

Yeah, had the undersides pressure washed. I'm so tired of how much salt is laid down every year.

'cause I just got all the salt washed off the E38 and P38... They're both finally black again, instead of off-white! hehehehe! Anyone else out doing some spring cleaning?

BMW's bottom line isn't in trouble due to their styling. Sales for 7s, for example, picked up after the '02s got introduced. But everyone is dropping right now.

As for the E36, even though it had...

He did improve BMW's bottom line, however. And he's been in charge of BMW design since '92... So he had the sign-off on the E36, E38, E39, and E46 as well, and their updates over the years.
