A great collection of vehicles, from an exotic Ferrari to a new, hot, red 135 sedan were carefully parked in the Bean lot. Photos were taken but not by me. Perhaps someone will send me the pics and I will upload them for the world to see.

Mashup in Pizmo
Also known as a "Meet & Greet." Leader Dennis Harrold did an excellent job of gathering a dozen driving enthusiasts at the Coffee Bean today (31 Jan) to discuss upcoming events and to meet each other. After discussion we all shuffled outside to look at the fine automobiles brought to the mashup.

From the Bimmerfest Blog on E90s
ISO Quality Planning, a company specializing in helping insurance companies identify risk, has compiled a list of the most heavily ticketed vehicles on the road, and lead feet everywhere can check it out.
The group analyzed traffic data on 1.7 million drivers and established the probability of a driver of a given line of vehicles being ticketed. The Hummer and Scion tC dominated the list, receiving 463% and 460% over the average, respectively. On the opposite end of the spectrum, the Jaguar XJ sedan and the Chevrolet Suburban attracted a mere 11% and 16% of expected tickets. Given that both the Hummer and the Jaguar are high-cost vehicles, it flips the idea that a huge price tag automatically means more police attention.
So, where is the bimmer?

My Last Car!
It has a chocolate brown (love chocolate) interior, 17 inch wheels, Sport and Premium packages and Steptronic tranny. That's it. Not a lot of other stuff. Soon the windows will be tinted, XM radio added and xenon headlight bulbs installed.
It goes 100 mph just fine, thank you. It is very comfortable on longer rides and rides a helluva lot quieter and smoother than the 135i. It is a Certified Pre-Owned car so it has a great warranty.
I am sure I will be driving this beauty for a long time.....now, just got to keep it clean!
