My Ride: 2004 BMW 530i - no mods. Pretty basic really. I mean it has tires, windows, and a sweet look, what more could a man want? Honestly, I'd like to improve the sound system mildly, and possibly find a worthy engine mod that would increase my BHP by 100 without giving an arm and a leg for. I don't think it's out there, so I'll stay stock and love driving my 530i.

Not my taste Jag. Long before I owned a BMW I was somewhat a Jag fan. The XJ12 is my long time dream car - that was before modern technology improved combustable engines. There there was this little change of hands of ownership where Ford took over. My Nemesis is and always will be anything made by Ford. Lets just say I've had my run in's with Ford and their cheap cheap cheap cars. Note I said cars! Either way once Jag went to Ford my opinion changed ten fold. To me a Jag is and will always be a Ford. I know I know, sounds very ignorant, but it's just how I feel. Thus said the video was very entertaining, and I was HAPPY to see an M5 take the win. In short to each's own. I love my BMW, both inside and out!

Yeah yeah, lurking the M5 section again... On the prowl to purchase a mighty M5 :-)

I think the XF looks sexy, but I'd still never buy one

"Sitting in an M5 is actually like sitting IN a laptop, you couldnt be more geeky"

WHAT!

"I'm not for a moment going to sugguest that this is better than an M5" - ahhhh theree we go...

A friend of mine has one of these... and besides the fact it could be second guessed for an Austin Martin, and that it has 500 hp... it still is a ford made "fast car" and we all know how that one goes....
