Oddly, I know exactly what you mean Alas, there was no "Fine dining" in sight this time.

Mighty fine flag and composition there. Love it! There could be a whole new thread. Your car from a restaurant window.

Thanks! You should hear how it sounds!

Perhaps a final form V12VS or V8GTS roadster are in your future one day. The 12 manual is rapidly going nutso pricing though. Late V8 manuals also doing well. Both very reliable cars as they had 12 years to iron out all the bugs. Actually any of the 2012 onwards are super solid as long as they had decent custodians.

Thanks. Your car is sick, by the way.

You jokingly say we could start another thread. It would probably happen if I brought your idea back to the 8er forum. In addition to the typical "Random shot of your 8 series" thread, we also have:
Head on thread
Rearview thread
Sideview thread
Parking lot thread
Lights on thread
and, I kid you not, the
Rainy Tuesdays Under a Bridge Thread
(Not a super long thread, possibly due to its narrow specificity)

https://f92.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1981254

We're easily bored in the winter.
