You know you drive an M5 when you park way out in an empty parking lot because you think those will be the last spots to fill.

...when you get a lovely hand-written note from a couple of hot college girls in a 4-Runner:







I took up two spots because the lot was crowded--couldn't park far away--and spaces were small (ding management)

You know you drive a F10 M5 when you drive a "fast" car with your friends and they are like it's so fast and you're like eh no comment, and when you drive them around in your car they understand after they start sweating when you go sideways !! lol

Not sure if its mentioned yet but,

In a parking lot with cement curbs, your car is the only one with the ass sticking way out because you dont want to damage your lip/bumper.

When your 5 year old tells his teacher, "papa drives an Orange car and scares mama", that car is so fast it goes like Vroom Vroom. He refused to sit it any of our other vehicles.

Me too, but I still get out and have a look, hands and knees at the back, before I go fully back.

....when you rack your brain thinking about what kind of errand you can run.

...when your exit is 1/4 mile ahead and you need to cross 3 lanes and you immediately see a path to the exit that you can execute perfectly if you smash the throttle and hit 120 MPH (whereas you would have previously just hit the brakes and fallen in line behind the minivan next to you).

You know you drive an M5 when........

You consume fuel averaging 11.4 mpg and eat a set of rear tires every 8k miles

...when you pull into the middle lane from the right lane to pass using just half throttle at 35mph and the full cup of ice cream sitting on the front cup holder flies off, does a 360 forward somersault, and land face up on your fine Nappa leather covered front passenger seat

You take your wife for a WOT run and she says she can feel her brain in the back of her head.

...when your M5 trips the fuel reserve at 82 miles left and you're like wtf? Then you realize the car expects you to drive 150mph at 4mpg to the nearest gas station in 5 gallons 20 miles away, and not averaging your 16.8mpg commuting miles...

so yeah, that's how you know you're in an M5.

nice.
Happened to me twice with this car.

When you demand your passengers empty their pockets because nothing annoys like loose change sliding along the seat track and it's next to impossible to get out.
