Monday is for M: BMW M5 Flame Throwers

By Manuel Carrillo III - February 24, 2014

When our Homo erectus ancestors began controlling fire roughly 1.5 million years ago, it was a pretty significant development for early humans. When Homo sapiens sapiens discovered they could entertain themselves and others by shooting flames out of their internal combustion-powered automobiles, it was a pretty significant development for late-model humans. In the entirety of human history, the BMW M5 is one of the coolest cars to roll off a production line. A BMW M5 that can shoot flames out its ass is an important celebration of all human achievement, linking the ability to control fire to modern-day hooliganism.
