First day with the M5!

SF_DCT · 09-26-2015, 12:16 AM

I'm loving this thing. It arrived last night, and the first time in it was driving down highway 1 today from SF to SB. Came from an E92 M3, and this one definitely fits the more "comfortable and spacious" request from my wife. It drives without the feeling of so much weight, and so far I think the steering is at least as good as my M3. Can't wait to find the perfect seating position and drive settings.

Congrats sir.

Time to update the sig..

Me too, coming from E92 M3. 6 mos now and MUCH bigger, but this thing hauls. Congrats on your new car, enjoy.

Are you in SB for the weekend? If so, check out the Montecito Motor Classic on Sunday...

M3sicko · 09-27-2015, 12:02 AM

Congrats, i am soon going the same route, currently own a supercharged E92 M3( my 2nd one), but time has come for me to upgrade for a bigger one due to family needs.

SF_DCT · 09-28-2015, 12:45 AM

Thanks guys - sig updated!
I was in SB, but couldn't make it to the show. I saw it last year (kind of stumbled upon it) and was really surprised how many amazing cars were there.

Congrats, BSM

I like OEM 19" rims on BSM M5

SF_DCT · 09-28-2015, 12:06 PM

Thanks! I love BSM, but man, I forgot how quickly it gets dirty. I'm also in the minority that prefers the look of the 19s to the other two options.
