Ladies and Gentlemen:

The official M5 Houston Meet count is in. Today we had 9 E39s, 8 E60s, and 1 E52 show up for our meet. Very impressive. My photos from today's feativities are attached.

I will email the sign in sheet with contact info to all participants in the next few days. Thanks again to all for a great "first" meet.

Power on........

Sorry I couldn't make it. Maybe next time.

How much attention did this attract? Any cops circling like sharks?

No, just a rent-a-cop that said the property owner didn't want people "congregating" unless we were shopping. This was before 10AM mind you.

It was the funniest thing seeing the rent-a-cop trying to kick us out, I figured there was about 1.1mill worth of cars or so sitting there during our meet. The meet was so awesome, we should try to get together more often. Even is it just 2 or 3 of our cars we should go for a drive.

WOW ! What a turnout. It was nice meeting everyone and admiring all the E39 and E60 M5's. Scott I really like that IB, looks great in person.
Guys, it was an awesome meet. Will have to do it again soon. Many thanks to Redhot5 who did an outstanding job of putting this meet together.

Let's not forget that the Z8 also attracted lots of attention.....Thanks for the homemade cookies Art.

Yeah. That was funny seeing that rent-a-cop lady wrote down everyone's license plate number, color, and the word M5 next to every line
