Who is this Justin guy? Check out my home page.

For all you M42 people, my old 318is page is here.

My current ride is a 1980 528i, pictured to your right. I purchased this car for $2,300 in August, 2002.

This is my fourth BMW - the replacement for my 2000 323ci. That's a two decade difference and I have to say the change is for the better. They don't make BMWs like they used to! This car is completely refined and yet completely raw at the same time. It's a blast to drive, but 100 times more comfortable than the current model (in my opinion)!

    • I drive BMWs because I can't afford Ferraris. I have owned several:

    • I get emails all the time from people asking questions about my BMWs. One of these days I'll put five years worth of these questions up on an FAQ page, but for now, please feel free to email me with comments or questions: justin.loeber@boxlab.com
