In Reply to: Pics from Rocky Mtn BMW CCA ice driving... posted by Doug G on January 21, 2001 at 12:04:33:

keep the nice red 535is and pocket the $80K+ you'd have spent on the e39 M5! Oh yes, do spend $1K on non-TRX and wheels, though.

The Rocky Mountain Chapter BMW CCA had its annual Ice Gymkhana on Saturday. NINE five-series BMWs were there with FIVE E28s. I think four of the five E28s were 535iss. The other was a 535i. My TRXs did not do so well on the slick ice.

This is my car next to Tim's E39 M5. I had a chance to drive it on the ice and on the frontage road near the lake. It is one sweet car. Reminds me of my '95 M3, but with more power and great exhaust note. Very tight suspension. Sure hope that lottery comes through...
