My Father In-law's 2003 530i

[Sntandrew]

HEY EVERY ONE! ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO MY FATHER IN-LAW AND I SET OUT TO FIND HIM A BMW (AFTER TALKING HIM OUT OF A TOWN CAR OR ANOTHER CADDILIAC) WE DROVE CARS FROM THE 325I TO THE 740IL ALL GREAT CARS. HE DECIDED TO GO WITH A 2003 530I. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET HIM TO JOIN THIS BOARD AND POST SOME PICS. "STILL TRYING" SO I DECIDED TO SHARE SOME PICS OF HIS CAR FOR MY SELF TAKE A LOOK!

MY HOPE IS TO GET HIM TO THIS FORUM AND SEE HOW HELPFUL AND SUPPORTIVE YOU ALL ARE.

HOPE YOU ENJOY
THANKS!

Hi Guys!

I'm Andrew's Father-In-Law! Andrew loves to watch me spend my money! lol

Thank goodness, because now I'm a proud owner of a 530I BMW . . . my first BMW.

Interestingly enough, I accompanied Andrew to a local Best Buy store so he could purchase a cable . . .uh . .maybe $20! (I helped)!

The next thing I knew we were at a local BMW dealership and and I purchased my first BMW . . . and yes . . (He helped!) LOL.

It was a fun day and thank goodness Andrew nudged me enough to now become a proud, happy and excited owner of a BMW. I'm still trying to figure out what "BMW" stands for. It might stand for "Back to More Work" lol

Thanks Andrew for moving me to bigger and better things.

I'm pretty sure it means "Break My Wallet."

Nice looking car you got there. Congrats.

Well he is right, I do enjoy helping other people spend money. Thats kind of m job.
I think I even had a hand in the purchase of his current home.

welcome to the board lon and congrats on you new bimmer!!

I'll tell you what BMW stands for: "The ultimate driving machine" that is simply the best

Awesome! That car has a great motor, silky smooth. The 5's are sweet machines, you get the best from the 3 series and the 7 series combined into such a good package.

BMW, in german, means "Bayerische Motoren Werke" or in english "Bavarian Motor Works." Easy to figure out why! There is tons to learn about the company if you're interested... and it is - in my opinion - a VERY interesting history. I think the history REALLY adds to brand pride.

Thanks, Guys! You are right . . . it is fun driving that "Ultimate Machine". I drove it to Nashville, TN this past week-end . . . sat back with cruise control on listening to my XM radio and was on top of the world. The bonus was I was getting over 30 MPG . . . and having fun at the same time.

Thanks for sharing!
