Congrats on the M5 decision...can't go wrong there. Just expect no gas mileage! The sooner you accept that the better off you'll be.

Once you drive one, nothing else compares!

That's why I have avoided an M5 test drive. I know I'd be hooked on its power and "presense". The 550i is more than enough performance for me (yet retains civility) so I went that direction.
I hear you there. I tried but could not resist. Besides this would be cheaper than the vantage that I want. I will still have my 530 for days I want to be civil. I have a 45 min commute to work, open highway and no traffic. Plus a guy in my caravan has a M5 and I can't keep up with him. It will be fun to roll side by side with him. And totally leave the Lexus gs 450 way be hind us. I love the driving experince that is why I own a Bimmer.

I spotted an Indianapolis Red fire breathing monster known as the M5. I said ok lets drive that one. I am still smiling. So me and my salesman have decided that we are gonna order me one after the first of the year so that I can do a European delivery this spring early summer. Now I just need to decide what color and options I want in it so it will be just for me.
Not the wisest choice but the best choice! I've driven one and I'm positive it is a decision that you won't regret. Except the gas mileage! Now I want one!
