Hi All

I wish to start this sub forum for all Hong Kong E60 fans and owners.

This past weekend, gf366 and I had a mini meet here in HK. Looking forward to more local meets.

Bunbun :thumbsup:

How about a UK thread a USA thread? Since we all have the same problems, is this a social thing or what?

The Singaporean thread is unbeatable... The worst part is, I don't even have time to finish reading all the post.... :wacko:

Hi All

Wow, 9 posts since this thread started yesterday, not bad. Now we need just another few hundred posts and we'll be ahead of the Singaporean thread...lol :P

wslam: Hi there, gf366 and I have been talking about another possible meet in the near future. Hope u can join us. So far we know of 4 HK members here, gf366, Bre Ced, u, and me.

First time I see my own car on this forum, and it's posted by someone else....haha. And see my first mod, stock 16" wheels swapped to stock 17" wheels (guess who traded me those 17" wheels). gf366's OZ wheels are even better looking in real life I must say !

Cheers

Bunbun.

Hi again HK E60s

My first local tip: that tire shop posted in the pics by gf366 seems quite friendly and honest. I believe gf366 bought his OZs there. The shop is located in Happy Valley near Yeung Wor Hospital (forgot the name of the shop). They didnt charge me any money for swapping my wheels, and only $200 for 4X wheel balancing.

More local tips welcomed :thumbsup:

Cheers

Why not? Do you stay somewhere in the middle of a desert, or some secluded area in Alaska? ^_^

Alohalc, there was another E60 owner from Hawaii a while back, not sure what happened to him, he stopped posting.

Nice pics :) I wish at least i could do a mini meet as yours, all e60 owners in my area are very old people or not too passionate about their cars
