A - your car is probably lighter and have a lot more torque. You might have a good chance.
B - It's an E60 meet precisely. So do you want to look like the rest of the folks there? Be different. LOL!! j/k

Well, BEFORE I bolted all that shit on it, the registration said it weighed 3500. Add the blower, exhaust, body kit, subs, amp, and other miscellaneous crap, and me, and it's probably closer to 4000 pounds now, so it's not lighter by much.
Coupes with my mods consistently run 12.1's in the 1/4. (I can't run because I have no cage, so I can't pass tech). Do you know what you guys run with your mods?

Although there's a ton of threads on 1/4 mile runs for the M5 on M5board, I can't remember the times. I do remember one car that had similar mods as mine (just different brands) that did it 11.9. I just don't remember the trap speed.
That right there (an 11.9 sedan) is the reason I'm going to be replacing the 'stang with a CPO M5 if I land this new job I'm interviewing for...

Here is just a tidbit: http://www.epinions.com/content_960077956
So, why do people hate BMW drivers? Are we truly super-pricks or what?! Christ.
I have to admit, however, I laughed my ass off reading the above paragraph...
