Hello there forum!

Just became proud owner of 15 M5 Comp. Black with Red interior. Driven 12K miles only.

First time owning a BMW. Coming from RS7 and S550 Coupe.

As a M5.. is there anything you guys recommend doing right off the bat. Any mods, dos and dont's.

I appreciate all your feedback and i look forward to being here.

While benz was a smooth isolated quite ride. This is def a more engaging car. You can feel the road lol. Audi was quite similar. But much more loud and pops came standard with factory sport exhaust. Just turned 30 so was like why not cross the BMW from my wish list too

Pics are coming brother!!

Welcome to the BMW world, I to have a 15 CP, I have done intakes and Chargepipes, DP and it came with a Dinan stage 1, so I found a stage 2 CP tune and tossed it on her. she is still under warranty so before I go full DME tune she will stay with Dinan, I also did a front lip and IND side markers and a rear diffuser. So let's see a pic of that sweet ride.

Took this when i picked up the car. I will take better pics soon. Its 2 days old now

Quick question. Is there a way to reset the car?
To delete previous profiles or stores stuff in infotainment.

What im asking is there a way to make it like when the car is brand new and you set it up all yourself.

Love the red interior. I believe you can do a reset. Its very similar to any 5 series . Youtube will have DIY videos on this. If its too quiet you need to do downpipes,muffler delete and a BM3 tune and you will hear those burbles pops you miss of the Audi.

Funny I just drove an RS5 and fell in love. Taking delivery tomorrow. That 4.2 NA V8 with the sport exhaust is just heavenly. That plus the noises between up shifts and down shifts...

Any suggestion on front lip! Really like the idea.
Thinking about the downpipes. But found out there is CEL light issue.

Also does downpipes void the factory warranty?

Everything can void a warranty, unfortunately.

Front lip: RW carbon or Vorsteiner

Im actually thinking about. Starting from blacked out grill. Side grill. Downpipes and tune and lip.

Car will be going to a full ceramic coating, clear bra, windshield protection film and tint next week.

That should set me back another 6-7k
