Agreed. It also looks good on all their SUV and MUV grills too.

That is because the whole design has been blended that way. As an add on to the saloons, it does not cut it !

Last day we went for a drive in Cayenne; for the first time we took it for an off road test at the north end stretch of Calicut beach, which is normally calm from visitors & tourists. Even though the Cayenne is not a pure off-roader it took the rough with a smooth.

Here is a short video of the last round on the sand as dedication for my BHPian friends:

His 523i at car porch, the S320 CDI is missing there.

525d of a fellow builder friend spotted opposite to his office complex at Mini ByePass.

730Ld relabeled as 745Li; spotted at beach road this evening. Earlier I saw it from Pushpa Jn, went through one way as its bunth. Its owned by a famous movie producer. He is from Calicut, but sure whether he sold it!!! Because his earlier cars where bought by some dealers of the city.

Guys, now I think it's high time we stopped posting pics of BMW 3 & 5-Series. They can be seen on the roads dime a dozen and cease to excite us anymore. It has become like posting pics of prev. gen. Merc C & E-Class!

I totally agree with you dude. The 3,5,7, and the Current C,E,S are all everyday sights here. This thread is just becoming filled with these. Lets pls stop posting all these and dedicate this thread to the proper imports amnd exotics.

You both are right, its becoming common, even then the most BHPians in the state love to see it, hence I'm posting. Ok I'll reduce putting 3 & 5, except any new ones coming to the city. But the bigger ones like S & 7, really enjoy seeing it, even if I see it daily.

Shabeer's (the yellow H3's guy) new Q7 reached last nite. Its S-line with panoramic roof, key-less go, brown leather, fully loaded. I was upset with the wheels only, but it was a mistake by dealer as they a wrong wheel. Anyway he'll do some wonders to make it identical. Today we went for a drive. Its a fabulous car. Infact you wont feel its size while driving. A good driver's SUV. Engine is powerful, refined & smooth. It was desk when we came back, hence I could snap only the darker ones. Other foto took by my dude on his way from B'lore.

@Jayabusa..Really sorry if my sentences didnt make any sense.Here it goes again.
  • The first BMW 5 series of Quilon ( Kollam ,it is a district in Kerala,if you are not aware of) was picked up by one of my friends.
  • I said I will post the pics soon, but looks like lot of pics of 3 and 5 series are already here and it has become so common, so its not needed anymore
  • Was enquiring whether any 7 series are available in Kollam.
  • They waitied almost 3 months for a white color for their 5 series, but had to settle down for another colur finally.
Does that help.??
