We're looking for a head-on shot of a Euro ///M5, M535i or Alpina to use for 5erFest. Does anyone have one we can use? Tim wants looking at the front of the car. Thanks!

Likely not good enough head on like you are asking, but I thought I'd share anyway

I think it's a valid submission. Just as long as there is no emmission.

Does it have to be a 'real' Euro? Whatever the case, I don't think you'll be lacking in submissions.

I know it's not a full image, but Dave Bush got a real nice shot of it:
Full shot, from last year before the headlamp washer install:

So which one of these is going to be the poster child for the Layton Chauvin commemorative display?

Looks like you've got loads of good material above. Here's a couple more just in case.
Photographer is Ronnie Renaldi here in Denver - he'd probably want to approve its use ahead of time (PM me for his contact info if needed).
Here's a partial/corner shot, taken by TSchultz on this board.

Nice Euro M5, M535i or Alpina, Mike.
And here's an Alpina without the ugly bit:

These are awesome! Thanks!
P.S. Thanks for moving it. I was torn between General Conversation and Eye Candy. Looks like I choose poorly.

Oh, sorry. Thought we were posting attractive euro'd E28's.
Mine's just a faux H5S.
The Alpina without the airdam is just plain ugly IMO.

I completely disagree. That spoiler is just about the worst thing to happen to these cars. I don't have one though. I ordered one over a year ago and I don't have it.

Thanks to all who contributed pics. I used one of the shots Murfinator posted as the basis for the new 2012 header image on the 5erfest website. Although the t-shirt designs will have another image on them, as I understand it.
All the 5erFest 2012 event info should be up to date on the site now.

cheers,

That's a good looking webpage. It's an honor to have been chosen over the many stunning examples submitted. Wish I could attend but my baby's going to be laid up another year or so.
