^^^ To everybody, who recently bought a Porsche. This.

I'm almost at 20,000 miles on my 2013 F10 M5 myself. I can definitely say that the M5 is a drivers car. I doubt any recent Porsche owners will drive their new Porsche to 20,000 miles within the first year of ownership, let alone keep it past a year. Well maybe except the 2014 GT3. I would find reasons to drive it everyday. Listening to that 9,000rpm redline on the way to the grocery store would be worth it, but then when I got there, I'd be like damn, where do I put all these grocery bags. Lol!

Beautiful car!
I ordered mine in Silverstone but changed it at the very last minute to Imperial Blue. Hopefully will look at least as good as this one !

Thanks for all the nice words... definitely loving this car. Have tons of photos and a couple hours of go pro HD video to edit so far.
Here's a quick pic from yesterday on the way up Sustenpass... definitely the best out of Grossglockner, Stelvio, St. Gotthard, and Susten.

Cheers,
Chris

Car dropped off in Frankfurt... 1800 miles in 7.5 days of driving... I miss it already and have a ton of video and photos to sort through for the inevitable ED report. Now to go enjoy Bier without worrying about having to get up to drive in the morning!

Thanks... The car went off paved roads many times this trip. here's a fun couple of pics... First and third are this morning in a viewing area above Nurburgring, the second is a sign seen on overpasses around the ring, "Don't drive so fast!"
