From that angle, it does appear the 530 is lowered. It looks like it's squating.
Dude I think he has some dead bodies in the trunk... JUST LIKE YOU!!!!

When was this NY meet? I know I don't have an M5, but it still would have been cool to attend or at least check out.
As for it being his daddy's car, it wasn't. it was fully his. he had an E46 M3 all tricked out with carbon fiber, hre's, etc.., that he crashed. this was his new car, as a replacement.
