New M5 owner...hey people!

Hi Guys and Gals,
I just became the proud owner of a jet black E39 M5. '00, 61000km on the clock. Was looking into buying an Alpina Bi-Turbo but found the maintenance would have killed me. Anyhoo, it'd be good to know if there's any other E39 owners here in Vancouver, Canada who frequent this fine board...

Rohan.
