so unethical!

I called the guy, he said he works for Shelly, and as far as he is concern, the vehicle (my M5) is still available for sale. Man!!! I am beyond disappointed now with both Shelly's sales & service....switching team soon; to Porche...
Don't be angry. Enjoy your M5. I would kill to be able to drive my M5 this afternoon (it's still on the boat!).

Porsche doesn't have any sedan that trumps the m5 - yet.

You'll get yours soon. Please share pics when you take delivery.
You are right, handling on the M5 hands down beats Porsche any time...

Thank you for your comforting words.

You should take the M5 out on a corniche and set everything to sport+. I did that on my ED trip. This car was meant for driving a corniche. It is nirvana.

update on the 2013 M5

It died on me today; drivertrain malfunction light came on, message on onboard computer screen displayed, check engine light flashing then turned permanently yellow, the triangle alert. Attempted re-start twice, finally restarted, won't go above 25mph/1,000 rpm. Called BMW Assist, too new, no info in the system, asked me to prepay in advance. After being transferred twice, a supervisor finally over-ride, and supposely a tow truck is on its way (while I'm sitting here on a curbside literally in tears).

Barely 500 miles on this brand new baby. What on earth is going on with BMW?

Dude, that's insane! Sorry to hear that. Hang in there until the flatbed comes. Did you call your dealer already?!

Yup! I am beyond upset. First 2012 650, now brand spanking new 2013 M5. Haven't even break it in yet.

On a more positive note, how's your M5? Bet it is much much better than mine.

Did your dealer not perform the oil pump recall before selling it to you? If not... maybe I shouldn't go there yet.
