Hi All,

I've had my E38 for almost a year now and decided it's about time I started a thread for her. 

Backstory: I had an E46 3 Series before this, and fell in deep like with BMWs and the way they handled. After two blown pistons and a repossession with that car, I searched online for my next BMW. I knew it had to be a BMW, it couldnt be anything else. I was inspired by a few E38's I saw on certain blogs, and searched hard for my own. 

BAMM. Some old lady had one for sale on Craigslist in Beverly Hills. Black on Black. 90k Original Miles. I was enamored.
This was the day I brought her home and gave her the name Renee, after a song by the Lost Boys.

And around early September a lady cut me off in traffic and forced me to swerve into a utility pole.
