Competitive parking lot pic

[Matt P]

While cleaning out the digital camera, I found this picture I took of 4 //M cars in the parking lot at work. I took it about a month ago when the temperature was in the 70s (go figure, it's 29 right now).

I had just picked up the M5T from the dealer (Classic BMW), and got back to the office in Plano.

Directly in front of it is an E46 M3 convertible, and the white car sticking a row up between them is also an E46 M3 convertible. And an E60 M5 to the left, and behind it, the front right wheel of a Jag XKR.

Did I mention that *all* of these belong to coworkers of mine?

For those curious, the M5T has been effectively sold, though not delivered. We've reached full agreement and I've taken a deposit on it, but the new owner won't be able to pick it until the end of March (he's overseas at the moment).

Anyway, I thought this would be fun to share.

That's it. I'm changing my occupation. I now make games as well!

M5T's are so infinitely cool. Nice pic!

[Traian]

Yours was the nicest of the lot.

Matt is in games?

[Matt P]

Yeah. It's no big secret that I make computer games for a living.

Here in the Dallas area, there are a lot of game developers, and it's sort of become a defacto requirment that if you are successful you fill up the parking lot with cool cars. /only half joking

/At previous job, my boss drove a 360 Modena, boss's boss drove a Murcielago
//both have since sold them, didn't serve well as daily drivers
