and about house vs apt? beat this.... i can't say the name but i know of a big software company president. he has a 360 and also a lambo, but he lives in a 1000 sq ft apt. don't ask me why
Some people like to live in apartments instead? Some of the cars could be there for parking purposes. I need to garage my car in Boston when I can afford it...

I know a guy with 2 SL600, and lives in a apartment as well. Somethings wrong with those folks.
I know of some rich people who have a house where their Wife and kids live and an apartment where they....well they.....where.....well......let's just say it's they entertain other friends. Not my type of lifestyle, but methinks Mr. SL65 is keeping it real with the local ladies.

we saw this black m3 with kits (not sure what, but that looks like the csl bumper with a front lip), hre 843r, brembo 14" front and rear, exhaust, lowered. i think i have seen this car before on e46fanatics, maybe someone can point him out

Ya that is a authentic strassentech lip on a custom m3 bumper that had the fog holes filled in to look csl. That guy is on the bmw forums but last I knew he sold that car for an e55 so that may be the new owner.
