I have bought an 07 plate and can't stop smiling. Had it about 6 weeks now and can't wait to drive in it. I keep going out late at night looking to race people, my wife keeps thinking that I am having a midlife crisis (which is probably true!). I even said that I love my car, which went down like a lead baloon.
Has anybody had the DMS treatment on the M5. I had my 535d done which was awesome. Just debating whether to do it or not, and looking for some other mods but as I am totally technically backwards I need to ask around.
Meanwhile I need to drive it again now as it getting a bit late and the roads are emptying and the boy racers are coming out!

My Ride: F10 M5 DMS RE-MAP 770BHP All Black
Hi,
Had mine re-mapped in 2007 by DMS, you will get a bit of a discount if your a member on here (I did anyway).
I was over the moon with mine, just give them a ring and they will fill you in with all the details, I know very little about Torque/BHP etc etc, all I do know is that mines like "s--t off a shovel".
My mid life crisis started at 48 with an M3, it just wasnt quick enough but the mighty M5 changed that
