make sure you stop in baden baden and go through the black forest - its epic - here is my M5 going up through the black forest starting at the edge of baden baden: Fast forward to 3:40

Sweet...

Never Convicted · 08-27-2013, 09:53 AM

Congratulations on a great car and a great trip. Brings back memories of my first car, a 1983 VW Rabbit GTi, which was as we all know, the M5 of it's time.

I love the Lake Como area. One of the most beautiful places I've ever been.

Best of luck with the new car.

Leo88 · 08-27-2013, 10:02 AM

Nice pictures and congrats for the new car!

Marcel · 08-27-2013, 10:37 AM

Wow

Beautiful car and nice pictures. Where did you take picture no. 4, 6 & 8?

By the way: In Switzerland you have only to pay a general toll for the autobahn. Not for any tunnels

There is an other reason why the traffic was backed up -> I think it´s because the gotthard tunnel has not a separated tunnel for each direction. Since a heavy accident a few years ago, trucks have to keep a distance of at least 200m (when i remember right). So they need there some space to park the trucks by heavy traffic or in vacation time.

killershark · 08-27-2013, 11:16 AM

Love the colour combo: black sapphire on coral red leather!

Pure · 08-27-2013, 11:22 AM

Congratulations The M5 great car!

Love the stance on the comp package. Just some spacers and it's good to go. No need for a further drop.

greentrbo95gst · 08-27-2013, 01:10 PM

Beautiful pics. Makes me want to go on another ED right now.
The wheels look much better on your car than any other colors I have seen. Now I am starting to like them after seeing your pics. Post more pics.

h4nh · 08-27-2013, 01:17 PM

wow nice pics!

canfly44 · 08-27-2013, 01:57 PM

This is a photo of the car that started the dream for me when I was 11 years old. I knew it was time to pull the trigger and buy the new model when they put that M5 badge back on the front grill.
