Man, the early Max days, the meets where small and relaxed. I still remember Randy slipping me a card at the BMW dealer tour in North York, following Julian to Chuck's in his loud automatic 535, meeting Charlie for the first time. Back when clear corners and shocks/springs was the epitome of wrenching.

Hehe, I was actually quite late to the party and now I'm one of the few that still has one (although I think Jay still has his). Speaking of throwbacks, I got an email a few weeks ago from a guy who just bought my old M5 from someone and is looking to restore it. I helped him with info but it was a little like a dude asking you for sex tips with an ex of yours... you'd rather not be involved lol

Man that sucks. It seems like there is a resurgence of Russians with e34 though. If you came to the midnight cruise part 2 meet, there were 4 of us with e34's (sia doesnt count lol). although only 2 of them (myself included) still have them!

All of us had/have M pars - the only way to roll!

I just read that there is a 1992 M5 for sale in Montreal - guy is asking $7000. The price is not bad and the condition is ok but TLC will def be needed..

what ever happened to JustinE36, or whatever his name was.

BigD · 08-19-2012, 03:59 PM

Wow, those are looking sharp! I thought they've all returned to nature by now at the rate they rust. I may own an M5 one day again but it's a barn car - a car I'd buy with some reasonable money to piss away on cars and a barn to keep them in (some others would include a 635 [doubt I'll find an M6], E38 740i, mid 90s black Suburban, LS400, 240sx etc).

He got sour at the forum over some politics and generally disappeared off the internet. We used to chat all the time. Then I'd send him an email once a year type of thing whenever I'd come across his contact info. Got a reply back once a few years ago, basically saying he's fine but crazy busy.

I know a lot of people like that... I still don't understand WHAT can someone be so busy with. Short of being one of those slaves in the bowels of a giant Roman rowboat, there's no way there's someone too busy to fire off a few sentences on an email or chat window. Maybe I don't take life seriously enough but I'd rather shoot myself than be like that.

Well hey at least I know I'm not the only one who thinks like that. After all, actions speak louder that words and maybe he just doesn't want you in his life. I find some people who are antisocial enough (or just indifferent to the world around them) to pull this off. I do find most Russians to be hospitable and recipocrative, something most Canadians lack.

Although don't post much anymore, I've been steadily lurking for a while
