Well, my dad's M5 has been a garage queen for the last couple years... he just sold all his other shitty DD's except his bigass dodge ram, so he figured it was time to put insurance on it and give it some love.

He just brought it home this morning from our indy (trust me, I heard it coming), and asked if I wanted to go for a ride. Of course, I obliged.

A few miles from my house, however, he pulled over, and asked if I wanted to drive it... my stomach started doing loops.

I can't explain the howl it made, or how it felt to scream through second and as soon as I shifted to third, I was already doing 80mph... but all I know, is this is one of the greatest and most amazing cars EVER!

The ultimate driving machine.

Well, I for one am pretty jealous. I've got to drive a 540i-6 which will smoke my 535i, but never had the opportunity to drive an M5. I know it's a rocket. Good on ya, man!






And wipe that grin off your face!

And yes, the interior is much cleaner than it looks.

Nice, Mulberry 4 seater.

Looks like a clean machine, looking forward to when my dad's S38 is all finished in his Alpinweiss '91.

Only thing I'd change is the centers of the M-Systems...definitely need to be black.
