Always love going through these ED posts. Looked like an amazing trip and definitely an amazing car in a unique color and finish. Great choice on the frozen cashmere.

Rocky - anyway you can unquote the entire journal? It takes forever to load up this page now and frankly not needed to have every picture twice - quite unwieldy to follow!

Frozen Cashmere is badass. Loved this write up, thanks for sharing your vacation with us! This is a trip I will 200% do with my next BMW, no doubt about that. I'd kill for a beer and that scenery.

Maybe you should "quote" him, so he gets pinged, lol.

Great trip and report. You helped me re-live my ED from last year.
These are by far my favorite threads. Congrats on the car.

You guys stayed at the Casta Diva. We spent 4 nights there as part of our 3 week honeymoon. It's an amazing resort - my favorite resort on Lake Como. I hope you took full advantage of the spa while you were there.

On another note, did you drive the M5 from Casta Diva to Bellagio? I did that drive in an Audi A5 rental car and i loved the drive, but i would imagine it is stressful in a brand new M5!

Would you mind emailing me your itinerary? I may do exactly the same when we do our next European Delivery. My wife hasn't been and I think your route has a certain romance about it.

Really nice write up. Just did one with an M3, and thought I'd check out the M5 board, and this one popped up. Great read, and I enjoyed the videos you posted. Interesting, though, that there are a lot more M3/4 ED posts than M5/6 ED posts.

But it's a gorgeous car, and I love the sound!
