:) I know, I know...it was a close call deciding which of the two would have to go (the e53 or e38)...and the old girl lost the coin toss. :(



BTW, I believe M.Wong is still holding on...he posted something a month or two ago on BimBrd...his wife had got involved in an accident that totaled her BMW 3 series wagon...and it was replaced with a new wagon (btw, she's OK)...and he still lists his Orient Blue e38...so it appears he's hanging in there with you. :thumbup:


EDIT: Yep...M.Wong still has his e38...here's his post from July/2018 on BimBrd: Anyone out there remember me???

Thanks for the update! Though you don't have your E38, that mental Rolodex still holds more info on not only the E38 but most BMW's and isn't surpassed by very many!

I did post a reply since Mark and I did correspond off and on over the years, but it has been almost 2 since we last talked.

Okay...I tried this yesterday. I needed to "restock" my coffee cream I use at work for my daily morning cup of coffee...so I parked the 6 GC (it has comfort access)...touched the P on the gear shift & left the car running...got out w/fob in my pocket and touched the ridges on the door handle to lock the car...went into the store (cream is in the refrigerators along the back wall of the store)...came back out and the car was still running. Unlocked the car...got in...drove off. :thumbup:
