I just bought a CPO'd 2006 M5 from San Luis Obispo it is Interlargos blue with Silverstone Perf interior, comfort access, heads up display and quite a few other options only 11k miles. Very excited to get the car and finally drive it I bought it on May 23rd and it will be June 22nd before I get it, long story. I already bought an RPI ram air intake for the car and am going to get a carbon fiber front spoiler.

I also have a 500 hp E36 M3 Sedan that I track all the time this car will be my daily driver.

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the color combo. But I believe, the trans and the model year are different from what he is looking for (i.e., a 2008 with 6 speed). I like the exterior color too, it's beautiful.

Wow! Congrats!

Now that's a long drive if you drove it, instead of shipping it

I used to live in SLO, and visited the dealer quite often. They NEVER had anything like this. Congrats on the steal, and your new beast.

Happy Motoring
