I like it. Id match the caliper color to body tho. For some reason yellow stands out more on a bright color car and my eyes are just drooling on your ceramic brakes

Now you need a Plate # HulkM5

Congrats!

Ive been waiting for my 601M rims to come in and I think I am liking the black rims more and more. Especially, after looking at my Speciale rims. Whats your thoughts?

josec70 · 09-13-2016, 10:20 PM

The car looks great with the Black wheels IMO. I love the contrast of the Gold Calipers against the black wheel.

momos750 · 09-13-2016, 11:09 PM

I would definitely keep the 343M's in black. They are a factory forged wheel.

If I'm not mistaken the 601M's are not forged and weigh more.

And surprisingly similar to your Speciale wheels.

apexlocator · 09-13-2016, 11:23 PM

I will always vote for 343 over 601. Like momos said, 343 are forged and 601 are cast.

bruza · 09-14-2016, 08:25 AM

Keep the 343's and also go for black kidney grill's and side markers.

Powerbeast · 09-14-2016, 10:01 AM

Congrats!

thxbuff2001 · 09-14-2016, 10:06 PM

I decided to keep the 343 and will buy an extra 601 for winter. Win win.

bruza · 09-15-2016, 05:36 AM

Good deal. Separate winter set up for Texas tho??

Vinyl wrap them or have them painted to match exterior color.

The media has given bad reviews or should I say not endorsed reviews about manual because it does not fit the engine. I am not after the fastest car. I just want a manual.

How did you find your Manual F10?

This wait is killing me. Pickup was delayed due to mechanical problems of the truck.

The reviews?

As many issues as I've had, I would never replace owning a manual M5 for a DCT.

I know that I'll never be as quick as the DCT I would line up with, unless I'm putting down 100-150whp more (which I am, over stock), but I dgaf. The raw feel and amazing connection that you develop with the car is unreal.

It kinda found me, was looking for cheap deals on leases, and it was on the floor at a dealer in the area, no one wanted it, so...
