Well, really the purpose of joining the board was to learn about Chicagoland BMW meets. I read about them on bimmerfest.com. I was very interested in learning about where they were going to be and when. Bimmerfest seems to be more populated by coastal owners, and I jumped on the chance of finding an owners forum which was Illinois-based!
It just so happened that I am selling the car at this time, and posting the classified ad was the second thing I did when I joined the forum.
Third thing is going to be finding a new 540i!
