Hi Eric-
I'm from WPB. Coincidentally I had Dinan exhaust installed at Braman the day after they did your Dinan mods. I asked if I was the first install for them, and Norman and Brian told me a broker named Eric who worked in Naples etc. etc. had picked his up the day before. When I saw your Diablo post I made the connection. Nice to meet you! Other SOFL M5's I know of:
MarkM5Lauderdale-Jet Black w/ full Dinan mods
M5 Bear-Jet Black
GaryT-Carbon Black
Jim Dolan-Titanium
Marlin-Titanium
Lear-Titanium
Aussie2u-Avus Blue
Jester-Titanium
Zoli-18 yr old waiting for M3 and desperate for a cool ride to the prom
GMGM5-Imola red (me)
Drew-E55-our token MB guy
Partners are invited to GaryT's party tomorrow, so bring your wife-might make it easier to"come and play".

Check old listings for "Topanga Grille meet"
for pictures. Hope to see you tomorrow.
Garry

Hi BROKER,
Come join us at GaryT's meet Sat. 1/13 @ 3PM, in Boca Raton.
Check out "South Florida M5 Owners Meeting [more free lunch]" .... Posted by GaryT on this board. He's invited M5 owners and their partners to his home for refreshments and fun. Just let him know if you can make it.

Why don't you guys sign up for one of the Florida BMW CCA DE's? A very good reason to get M5's together and a fun way to spend a day!
