I leased it, payment is around $1100 not too bad IMO.

The 6 series came out to $1000 including taxes.

The GT500's are amazing if I get a chance I'll probably pick up a used Boss 302 for track purpose.

Thanks for all the kind words guys!

It takes a while to get used to how big this car is, but at the same time it's very smooth and comfortable on the efficient/comfort settings.

I like how the negotiation moved from an M3 to an M5. Classic!
Congrats, looks good.
