drive the damn thing

people get out there and drive the damn thing. too many people are worried about how fast is my car in the quarter mile or top speed or which tune is the best. who cares. ho put some miles on your car but put your foot into it whenever you can. go represent that brand you bought and dont look back. your resale value is shit and that's not why you bought it. you bought it because you found out it's one fast ass phuck car so go enjoy it.

Drove mine cross country, NY to LA and back twice. 2017 and this past July. I loved every minute of it. Put 7000 miles on it each trip. Also have driven to Key West Florida twice too.

Amen, I drive mine daily during the summer. May it be to the office, job sites (architect here), our out with friends and family.

I bought the car to enjoy it and have had a blast owning and driving it from day one.

man I've got 132k now and running real good. a long time ago i had toned mine down from high tq/hp from around 700 to about 645 or so. this way ensures my car will last a very long time. I smile every time I'm in it. but the last 3 months I've also put 10k on my gt3. lol. that cars a beast.

Love it! Drive around 1,400-1500 per month. Wouldn’t have it any other way. Cars are meant to be enjoyed and driving. Lambs and Ferrari’s are to store like a princess in the garage 😈

A redline a day keeps the mechanic away! ...Well maybe not, I keep getting back in to drive it more! ;-)

This motto has worked for me for the past 9 years and 170,000+ miles I put on my S62 (M5). Up to 291,000 on the original engine now.

With both cars, I baby them while the oil warms up and then let her rip at will.

Agree 100%. Mine is my daily commuter and it's a riot to drive but also super comfy. I tend to change cars often but the only thing that might replace this one is...a newer F90 M5.

I've had my M6 for 14 months now and have done 28k miles in it. I drive it every day and its gone all over the North Island of New Zealand.

Some people buy a shit car to daily - screw that, drive the good car every day!

Good point. I work in a crappy area that's death for lowered cars and haters everywhere. I have a daily for work (Audi a3 2.0t), picking up crap, park in door ding zones, and I dont care about driving it up curbs etc.. makes me appreciate the m5 more when I drive her on my days off. I flog that bizznatch!! If there's open road, the pedal is to the floor!!
