My Ride: (E60) 535D M-Sport (DMS)
Cheers all, i'm loving it so much i think i could get arrested in certain countries. I'm hoping Europe & the Nurburgring are ready for us as it promises to be a wonderful trip & i can't wait to get this beast on the track.
My perspective on the DMS map was that driving this new M5 was going to be a learning curve, so why do that curve twice by learning her capabilities as a stock M5 & then re-learning in 3-6months when she'd been breathed on by DMS. It made perfect sense to get this done quickly & learn the cars characteristics in full tune all in one go.
I've already had tuition, being a Ferrari Driver Training Day & Audi Driver Training last year & i fully intend to find such a course for the M5 or if not possible to take a focused RWD performance car training course as i believe driver training to be one of the better mods one can make to a performance car. So with my new stead & her up to full power i'll go learn how to drive her correctly & apply those techniques.

Car is at the dealers for 2 days as they invstigate a battery drain so i won't get it back until later today & it went in yesterday morning (i'm missing her). DMS also found 2 bolts on the bulkhead & a cable tie missing so they're being replaced as well.
She'll be getting a top to bottom clean over the weekend in readiness for my departure to Germany & The Ring on Tuesday so i'll snap some piccies then.
