    There are lots of them on the road in so cal. I look them over as we creep along in rush hour at 5 to 30 mph. Check out the general condition. Look for modifications. Form opinions about what I think looks good with what. Check out the driver--see if they seem to match the car. Look at license plate holder and where they bought it. Wonder if they are original owner. Wonder if they are as obsessed with theirs as I am mine.

    Look for mods. Look at the driver to see if he notices my car, if not then i just keep goin. I may give a thumbs up or somethin if the other person seems like a BMW enthusiast.

    Most of the E34s around here aren't enthusiast owned, and if I had the money, I'd buy them all and give them the love and respect a car of this stature deserves!! (Geez.. Do I love E34s?? I dunno... kinda!!)

    If I do see a well kept E34 with an enthusiast-owned appearance, I'll flip the headlights, give them a wave or an approving nod. Im surprised how many waves and nod I get from unknown BMW drivers too... Must like the ol' girl!!

    I saw a SEXY AS HELL E30 C2 Alpina yesterday, and stood near it for 15mins wainting for the owner. I chatted to her for about 45mins about all things 90's BMW, and offered for her to join the Tas owners group.

    Gone but NEVER forgotten. :'(

    And then...

    I check out if they're treating the car as it should be. You can usually tell an enthusiast if they notice your car and give them a little nod.
