Wow, that's awesome. Not quite the same, but I caught a guy in an slk350 staring at my car. I know he digs it.

wow! Good for you, unfortunately not all MB owners appreciate BMs.
I was at a stop light once, minding my own business, when an 06 MB SL500 creep up next to me, looked at the car, and smoke his tires as the green light came on, wat an ass!

Terra is beautiful. On AW it looks great, but not as good as Jet...

I was driving home late the other evening and suddenly my car lost all electrical systems and power and just rolled to a stop. Before I could start to check out the problem, an almost blinding white light engulphed the car and I could feel the car - and me - being pulled upward.

I found myself in this empty "room" sort of space that was whitish-greyish with no particular shape, surrounded by the strangest looking beings I have ever seen with huge almond black eyes and no nose or mouth to speak of. I was just about to pee myself when the one nearest me opened my car door, leaned toward me and said "dude, nice ride". Well, he didn't really 'say' it as much as I just heard it in my head... kind of weird, but seemed normal somehow.

I was led out of my car while at least a dozen of these beings walked all around it, feeling the smooth surface and admiring the lines and detail. They were incredibly impressed with the bluetooth functionality and I saw one of them making some notes.

After much discussion about the E90 and a cup of the best coffee I've ever had, they gave my car a full detailing and I was gently lowered back to the same spot on the road where my car had stopped.

So, I guess it happens to all of us from time to time, having someone with an appreciation for well engineered machines taking the time to express their approval of the E90.

True story. I asked if I'd see them again, and they said "well, we'd really like to check out the wagon".

Haha, LEDZEP!

Oh and sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, supernova. I love the Terra. Everyone makes a comment as to how "classic" or sporty it is. Oh and my test drive was in an AW 325i with Terra and Xenons. It looked fantastic. I don't think you can go wrong. Just my opinion.
