Where's the SMG?

You haven't truly driven an M till you find one with SMG tranny. I say keep looking till you find one. Aside from that, she's a beauty!

Never Wanted an SMG
had enough of such transmissions..
Always was looking for a Six Speed for the Ultimate Beast
Feels so Alive..
driving SMG is like sitting and watching TV. LOL

Nothing wrong if someone like doing just that..
different strokes for different folks, I guess..

hi i got a 2009 m5 white with red 4500 miles. car is 4 months old.... $101,000 out the door.. throw me a offer... wanna get a bentley continental gt

You do??? Yuck! They're a dime a dozen in my town. So tired of seeing all these old geezers driving them. Nothing appealing about them, IMHO. Keep the M5.

If you're going to switch cars, do a Maserati, Aston, or even a Ferrari. Screw Bentley.

Congratulations! You are living my car dream -- 550 to M5. The car looks great. I don't have lots of spare cash so I am looking for a lease swap myself.

Enjoy your new ride and tell us what you think of it once you have driven it a bit.

I think that the Conti GT is a gorgeous car but it is not of the same type as a M5. It is a very fast, very heavy luxury cruiser. It is not the kind of car that I would want to fling at the twisties. But if stoplight and highway cruising is your top priority, the Conti GT is perfect for that.

If I ever have a lot of cash waiting to spend on a car, I'd probably be driving a Ferrari F430 or 599. If $300K was not in the cards, then a 911 Turbo or GT2 would be a great pick.
