Flat Eric with too much caffeine. Love the pics and mods so far. Congrats and can't wait to see what else you do to it.

congrats again on the BEAST. any performance mods in the works? ECU tune? Exhaust? RPI intake, Pulley? ETC? it gets addictive....worse than the regular E60s lol
The cf ///M5 badge is from eBay. A British seller "carspares4sale". I don't have any plans for the engine yet, because I don't know this car very well yet.

The pedals are OEM and from SalesAfter - The Online Shop - Index.

Congrats on the new Beast. I too just recently switched from a 04 545 to a 06 M5 and the power is addicting. Hope to see you over at the M5board....

I can't believe you got rid of your 530. Whoever gets it, is a lucky person! Nice M5 Antti, I look forward to some new mod threads!!

Crap! When I first read the title I though you did a full engine swap\mod! LOL! I was thinking no way would he leave that sweet interior on the 530d! Anyway, congrats!

Thank you again fellows!
I already registered in M5Board, but haven't written anything. I'll introduce myself probably at the next weekend when I have some more time. I'm on duty at the moment.

Actually I can't believe it myself either haha! Somehow that just happened anyway. Trading in for this particular M5 was a sudden opportunity that I wanted to grab on.

Lol! The engine swap would have been a true mod!
I loved that interior as well .

One of the first "mods" will be a full paint correction detail for the M5. I'm loving the colour Silverstone II already (It's not black!).

Antti - nice step up from the 530 to the M5, did you keep anything from the 530?
