VO in Reston, VA -- Anyone here?

1978.530i · 07-09-2014, 07:22 PM

Wednesday evening around 7:45pm. VO with black rims. Headed from Reston Parkway onto 267 toward DC. Looking good. Almost as good as my BSM... :-). I was in a rental car so you wouldn't have noticed me!

Yep, that was me. It's funny, I had two other friends who saw my car on the road tonight and immediately knew it was me. Also had a heavily modified e90 M3 drive around my car on 495 for a few minutes and give me a thumbs up. It's hard to avoid attention in an orange 1M

1978.530i, are you visiting the area or did you move here? I remember reading that you travel a lot. Also what rental were you in and where did you see me? I still remember most of the cars that were on that stretch of road at that time of my drive. Were you in a Ford Escape?

Here's a pic of what my car currently looks like (I tried to make it look aggressive but it's still not even close to as sinister looking as a BSM):

Yep, was me in the white Ford Focus! I work for a company HQ at the Reston Town Center and I'm in the area a week or two each month (plus lots of other travel). I live outside Savannah, GA. Good memory! Your car looks great. I tried to catch up to you...to no avail LOL.

The CIA, FBI, NSA - you name a three-letter agency and we got it. It's one of the benefits of living in the DC area. (P.s., Deleting cookies won't help!)
