WOW! What a great time! In attendance were:
- Jon in Richmond
- Mike in Richmond
- Jay in VA
- Leonard
- Tim in N FL
- Me
Leonard’s wife made beans, Leonard grilled brats, and Tim bought a car! Leonard’s (now Tim’s) 535is is one of the best examples of this car that I had ever seen. Jon’s euro M535i is a beautiful example as well, but what ‘wowed’ everyone was Mike’s car. This car is just beautiful! If you’ve been around the myE28 community for a year or so, you’ll know the history of the ‘Ross Maza’ car. It’s nothing like previous prospective buyers claimed it to be.
Of course, Jay’s car generated quite a bit of conversation as well, and now it has M5 driver’s side doors. So, it’s even more ‘beautiful.’ I didn’t have my camera with me, but Mike and Jon were taking pictures. So, I’m sure I’ll find some to post tomorrow!
Now, I gotta go watch Lost!
Autoblog Maintenance 101: Oil change – Autoblog
I’m sure quite a few of you have changed your own oil at one time or another (and probably quite a few more have not). Eric Bryant at Autoblog has written a stellar write up of the everyday oil change, and gives some very good reasons for doing it yourself. His procedure isn’t just, drain, change filter, fill. He goes more in depth, suggesting other things you should check out while you’re in there. I change my own oil on my BMW and on my wife’s GMC. I love doing it and, like Eric says, it gives you a chance to check things out under the car.
Tim in N FL from MyE28 is coming up to Richmond to buy Leonard’s car today. So, all the Richmond (and one Norfolk) 5ers are getting together to say hi! Should be a good time!
This is Tim, and his new (to him) Alpin Weiss BMW 535is.
This is Richmond Mike’s Car (a.k.a. Ross Maza’s Car)
More of Richmond Mike’s car…absolutely beautiful!
Jay’s beater…he claims the M5 doors (shown) added 50hp.
Here is Tim, being shown around under the hood by our host Leonard. (with me looking on from the right)
This is Tim’s new car nose-to-nose with Jon’s Euro M535i, another beautiful car!
