Nice M5 Spotted in Atlanta...

Today I was in Buckhead...I was turning at the intersection of Valley and Habersham...I spotted a really nice black E39 M5 coming towards me who then slowed and flashed his/her lights to let me turn left in front of them. I flashed my light back as a way to say "thanks!"...It was a really nice black M5 with the round silver air ducts up front...it also looked to have 19" OZ Superleggerra three piece wheels.

It was a really sweet looking M5!

So the question is...are you a member on here? Anyone know?

Garrett

My friend Kevin has an e39 540 with full m5 kit and the ducts up front. He has 18" BBS RC's though.

Hmmm...I guess ask him if it was him that flashed me?

I'm pretty sure I saw OZ Superleggerras but then again I barely could see since I was turning left and watching the road.

He was stopped and I was turning left away from him so I never got to hear him accelerate...traffic was pretty heavy since it was like 6:00 PM
