So the M5 will be going away because yes I am going through a divorce. (Awesome) It wasn't because of this car 
Most of you know that my wife was actually cool with all of the mods and that was the ongoing joke with me over the last few years. I am keeping my house in the split so I wanted to cut some of my expenses. When you lose a significant amount of your monthly income $600+ a month on gas + the M5 payment isn't worth it. Buying the Infiniti essentially cut my monthly car expense by almost 60%. (I'm not kidding I got a sick deal on the M45)
Look for a part out sale soon. I have a local buyer for the M5 already that doesn't want all the aftermarket stuff on it.

As much as I love the 550, it's a downgrade. Same as it would be going from a 550 to a 530 or even a 545. You seem to be taking it as a personal attack against you/your car which it isn't. And I'm not saying this cause I'm an M5 owner. I'm sure some 7 series owner out there thinks the M5 is a downgrade too.
You seem to be okay with what you're going through Mark so hopefully things are amicable and the wellfare of your kids are taken care of (I'm pretty sure you have kids). Those RPI mods will go fast! Good luck with everything and hope you still hang around the forum. I'm sure all your local friends from the forum aren't going to let you just disappear either.
