Looks awesome, but I'm biased.

The pictures look as if your rear diffuser is glossy. Is it?? I have the same one but it's a matte finish.

I hate the airmatic suspension in the rear on the car; just too fluffy. The CP steering feel is improved over my 13 (as I can remember that far back) it there is no dead feel or whatever its called.

I do think Ill get a white GTS now that I can spec it out with the ED1 parts.
Have they released an order guide for the 2017 GTS yet?

In fact I think it is. I saw the options on the system at the dealer (the ability to order a fixed wing and other Edition 1 parts on any car) for 2017 builds.

Did you see this?

The grille shows that it is clearly not a GTR but something else.

Nice addition! Love the combo choice. As far as the tune goes, do you know if they had to remove the ECU's to unlock it first? I have been looking for a tune without tampering with the ECU's as I had a bad experience with my M5.

Yes they had to pull both ECU's out but its an easy process. The only part thats odd is that BMW fluid cools the ECU's so the tuner had to crimp the lines so the fluid didnt leak out all over the place. He then did his magic unlocking both, reinstalled them, and then delivered the updates via OBDII.

Woo! I can finally say I own the same car as Vic55 , haha... But I've saved up for the past 3 months and depending on what I can get for my current M5, I might be finally able to swing for a GTS Edition One or pick up my buddy's Huracan.


However, Huracan + me = insurance rates through the roof...

You know you are ballin when you buy a brand new loaded up M5 as part of your business venture lol!

Really like the spec on this one. Everything is done perfectly IMO and is just how I like cars like the M5. Very nice OEM plus look where you can tell it is something special above and beyond, but it's not in your face.

Love all the CF accents. That interior trim is very nice and really sets off the SO leather. I bought the OEM real CF for my E92 M3, but it is no where near as nice as what is in the M5.
