the current E looks like a box and reminds of a coffin.
a coffin with lots of airbags.

go and buy 1 now.
it not often that you get to sit in a GTR doing 200mph+ or close to it.
also you might get to sit in some ferrari or a lambo
Mike you must tell us how fast you went on the track
KC must time him and the G force on you i phone
Mike next time I will come with you and be the Camera man
Have loads of fun and drive safe.

New Years to all. Finally sold the M5, wife was finding it a bit uncomfortable with the ride height and SMGIII whilst sitting in the back with the baby.
She misses the power and the handling but hey, gotta make sacrifices...
Have a GL500 now, handles better than expected. Also can take the baby pram easily. No need to fold the pram or anything, just shove it into the boot
This will be our daily driver also a HK/China car. Should've read the forum during xmas, I just got a set of 22" carlsson for the truck :S. Will be keeping a set of original rims in our factory (china) just in case haha.
A question to all the dads out there.
What baby seat for recommended for a 6month + baby. My kid is out growing the infant car seat by around 6 months earlier than stated on the damn label. Looking for a 1 year old+ car seat, Recaro? chicco ( I saw this really nice racey looking one) ?

these can be used until age of 12
they can become booster seats
congrats on the new car
M5 is very nice but not for HK roads or for a family car.
Its designed too much for the track.

happy new year
go for maxi cosi or britax with isofix. I would avoid recaro and combi, they were ranked unsafe by which b4 and dont know if the newer models are better. check out which mag on line, they have done extensive crash testing (the crash video were also fun to watch)
if safety is your primary concern, stick with infact seat until your baby is 9 months+. they will cry a bit but wont die from it

Recaro if you want a racey look, Britax for more protection.
22" in China? wonder if the tyre can last a week there man. but the rims will really make your car unique in the province you are in, just stock tons of spare tires in your factory.
