Love the sound of downshifting of that v10. OMG!!! Makes my diesel almost crap.

Freude am Fahren means Pure driving pleasure?

When translating it exactly, would be "Freude am Fahren" = "Joy in driving".

And that statement is not too far off, concering BMW's handling.

Yeah, some sounds i have never heard before. More brutal, more there, more metallic and slightly deeper. I wonder if that taxi has any mods on it like intake?or exhaust?

Chrishei, Vegas is too flat for that...
But with a little bit of effort you could make it in the Rocky Mountains, Aspen or somewhere near a middle to big Canyon...

And believe me, the roads to reach N?rburgring from the nearest highways are already a dream itself.
The best memory I have is arriving there pursuiting a Ferrari Daytona Convertible, during the Ferrari Racing weekend in September 2004, at around 8:00AM of Sunday...
