[@petersvanberg4261]

I lived in Germany 24 years ago and had a E39 528i. Incredible car, at all speeds. Not a rattle or squeak after 80.000 km/50.000 miles. I should have kept it! Later I lived in the US and whenever I saw a nice German car bumping along at 50-60 mph I thought “if you haven’t driven one on Autobahn you have no idea what it is”
