From the fob....trunk closes, windows/sunroof roll up, mirrors fold in/out......
inside the car.... window disruption gone, disclaimers gone, video in motion activated, media in hud work, trunk can close from inside also. Shawn did a great job on this.

Car review....
Shit it is badazz. The shifts are ultra fast and smooth. Comfort level is awesome..it is a luxury car with a motor. Computer is fast and the graphics are better than the e60. I had a chance to purchase a 911tt, gtr blk series, used r8 4.2 and I still choose the m5. Guess it is something about the M. Now mind you I still have 900 miles to break in the car, but it is quite under 4k and starts humming after that. I wont do anything to disrupt the break in period because anyting I buy has to last me. People have been giving me thumbs up at the red light so that is a good feeling. Anyway, if you can at least experience the drive in one of these, I hope all get a chance to do so.

Glad you're really enjoying your new beast, congrats Bro. If I get the opportunity I will gladly join the "M-afia" LOL. The M5 has always been a dream car, and each day I am getting closer. Can't wait to see how this car evolves.

Congrats on the beast. Post pics once you get the springs, difference is huge. I personally would get a ECU tune once car is past break in period.

Thanks guys. I will post up when I put the springs on. We are all waiting for an ecu tune, but currently it's taking awhile for everyone to step up to the plate.
