New M5 Owner
Hey everyone - I picked up a '14 M5 with the competition package a couple of weeks ago and I wanted to introduce myself. I'm coming from a '12 550xi with the m sport package and Dinan Stage III software that I ended up selling last month. I was considering a pre-owned 911 turbo or gran turismo, but the combination of our growing family and some pretty sick M5 lease deals made my decision to go with the 4 door beast an easy one. The M5 is equipped with:
Black Sapphire Black Merino Competition Pkg w/ 343M Executive Pkg (not sure why this is an option) Lighting Pkg Bang Olufsen I don't plan to modify it too much since it is a lease, but I did the Exhaust Meister mod and 35% llumar tint all around minus the front windshield so far. I plan to remove the charcoal filters, hardwire the radar detector, and possibly vinyl wrap some of the chrome accents. Also, I want to say thank you to my fellow forum members. I've been quitely following a lot of the threads and you guys have posted some great information that helped me decide to get the M5 and plan out my mods. Here's some pictures. Raj

I haven't pushed it cause of the break-in period so I can't compare the power just yet. However, the handling and the DCT are phenomenal which makes it feel like a more complete car.

What do you mean the same here? The M5 is just a upgrade 535/550 in handling and power aspect?

Right now, it's too late to regret, put 19000kms on the car already, If I will do the trade in staff, I gonna possibly lose $40000.
