Thumbs up Houston....ran into 2 different white E63's this weekend

1st one was late Saturday night....I pulled up next to you on Hwy 6, and gave it a little gas. And then we did a lil run for about 2 seconds. Car looked sick! I think you had some 20's on it.

2nd one was Sunday afternoon, on Fountainview between Westheimer and Richmond. The passenger was motioning something to me but I didn't catch what you guys were trying to say.

Just curious if they were anyone on here?

I think I know the white one from highway 6. I work off 6 and see him regularly. white with pano roof. clear side markers with LED bulbs and for sure a 20" wheel?

With all of the Houston area guys that post here, i'm surprised there isn't a regular get together. Lets work on that.

I'd like to see that truck. We'll have to start and afternoon "cars and wine" or something like that.

The wheels on #1 were silver I believe with a polished/chrome lip. I'm pretty sure it was a E63, as it had the E63 rear bumper and E63 badging on the fender.

I usually don't race people, but we just played around for a sec. The University run in wasn't me...I'd remember that. But I do have a black E55, that's got E63 front end, headlights, 19 replica wheels, taillights, trunk spoiler, etc.

See you at the meet...

SPOTTED! Black E55 dropped on what looked like e63 wheels and tail lights traveling eastbound on the west park around 4pm today. I didn't spot you but one of my guys had our shop car out for a run. White 996 lowered and with GT style body work and loud exhaust
