Congrats! She looks classy and aggressive. Quick question, the headrest in the F10 looks likes it rises much higher than in the E60....is it automatic like in the E60 or manual adjustment? I am also a big guy so I notice things like this.

Its automatic and you are right..this one looks higher than the e60. The seats looks and feels bigger too.

Exactly! You see them on every corporate parking lot.
Porsche seriously watered down the brand with those slow ass diesel P-cars they sell by the millions.
250 HP and 0-100 in 6,8 s? Come on...

How tall are you I'm curious on your thoughts of how well you fit in the car. I'm 6'9" and I assume you are close to that based on how high up you have the headrest.

Gorgeous! I was looking the Frozen Silver for when I order mine, I really like the silver shades (including Moonstone) on the F10 M5. Excellent choice!

The Silverstone looks way different than my E90 M3. Weird.

It has way more lustre.

Looks great, congrats.

I've got good news for you - as a mere 535i F10 owner, I can tell you that the doors do break in and will close fine after a bit. I think perhaps the seals just need to be broken in a bit, because at first mine were hard to get shut as well.

hoi savarona,

wat een geweldig verhaal! Echt een pracht auto heb je! Ik ben zelf (vrij amateuristisch wel te verstaan) qua foto's ook al heb ik wel een nikon spiegelreflex en snap alle instellingen enzo verder wel, maar ik vroeg me af of er misschien een mogelijkheid is om van jou auto foto's te kunnen maken, desnoods als die ergens geparkeerd staat, maar ik ben zo verliefd op bmw's en vind die van jouw echt prachtig! mijn email is jur01@hotmail.com, hoop dat het niet erg is dat het in het engels is!

Groeten Jurian

Hi there.
I want to know your opinion.
I have X5M in London, now I want to get new M5. The problem is I need to pay £20000 extra it's about 32.000$.

Do you think it's worth it or not?

Hi, the f10 is Ã* totaly new generation. The X5 M is nice but its an older generation. I think if you can afford it you have to go for the M5. The value of the x will drop more quickly than The M5.
