Back in a M5 after 6 years...

My last M5 I had was in 2008. I loved that car, had the Dinan stroker installed in it and kept it for a few years. After that, I bought a 2011 CTS-V and had the Hennessy V700 package done, kept it until 2013. I bought another CTS-V and had the 21st century 850 pkg done. It made 733rwh through the auto, was fast as hell but I just did not like the Auto. So I now have come back to a F10 M5. I love the DCT transmission. Car feels bigger than the V, but much more driver oriented. So far I have installed the Dinan coilovers, AFE intake, IND lip, black front & side grilles, full clear bra and 21" wheels. I'm planning on down pipes and a good tune.

Streetking lives!!!

Damn dude, I thought you were long gone. Especially after you sold your stroker. I don't know if you remember me, but I was BMWDave over on the M5Board forum. Nice to have you back in our fold. Congrats on the Alpine White Beast.

By the way, I reccomend the RPi Catless Downpipes and the BMS Tune.

That was not my original white car.. It was the black car that belonged to Cody. My white car is in Canada and still running strong.

Yes they are.. most of my cars have HRE's or ADV's, wanted something quick for now until I decide what to order. I think they look pretty good for the $$..

Beautiful. Many of our M5/M6 customers go with the 21" Niche Essens. Great value for the money and no need to wait for a 6 week build time.
