    [IMG]Hi,

    My name is Skip #418200 and I live in Cary, NC. I own a 1999 740I that I call black beauty. It has 155K but rides like a dream. Done some engine and suspension refresh and I now very happy with my ride.

    Been a memeber for several month but still not receiving my roundel magazine. Hope it comes soon.

    Welcome and very nice ride. I have always liked the the E38s and they look great with M Parallels! :D Now all it needs is that 6-speed conversion! ;)

    Wow she is a black beauty!! Welcome to the club!!!! Just a note I did not get my first Roundel until today and I joined the club at the end of March so it takes a bit to process I guess!!!

    I'm new!

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm a new owner (just hit 4 weeks) out in Federal Way, Washington. Driving has been a blast with my new convertible!

    I think I'm spoiled. I have several other vehicles and neither of the other two drive anything like this.

    Looking forward to meeting some likeminded people who can teach me about my new baby!

    Unless you are in southern New England! I think we've had a total of about 6 consecutive days that it hasn't rained this summer. :-(

    Well at least its helping reduce the wear and tear on the roadster.

    and oh by the way, welcome to the club Skip!
