Finally, I picked her up after much thought and hunting for a while. A massive thanks to everyone who helped me out with advise on my thinking about buying this monster of a car.

I probably shouldn't say this, but I've had the car since the 1st November already :fencelook: Just needed the right time to post it up here, and have some decent pics taken.

No half effort camera pictures - this car needs something special.
So, headed down the road to S///Mon's place to give the M5 a decent wash and off to take some pics in an undisclosed location :idea:
Hope you guys enjoy the pics. These are the stock standard ones, S///Mon will post up some edits - I'm a bit no0bish at that still.

Wow! Thanks guys, the comments are all appreciated. I'm amazed with this car. Feel like a kid when I accelerate and the V8 roars :praise:

I still need to put her on the dyno and see the exact figures, but the dealers say she's pushing out 410kW - not sure how accurate that is?

What's been done to the car?

  • Rob Green Stage 3 conversion
  • Performance cam
  • ECU upgrade/ tuning
  • Intake
  • Exhaust

So let's see what she's capable off. All I know, she f*cks off - and fast!

good start... now pics of it going sideways :fencelook:

Haha, I agree dude. Need some open parking lots for that though. I'm still gentle with the car through corners.

Lemme know when you're available, you can add some pics of this beast to your collections!
Yeah I'm still on the BBM group. Will see if I can post up some pics on there too - otherwise if you're bored you can add 'em ;)

The M5 really is an amazing car. It's so heavy, but getting somewhere is effortless. It's the perfect car for me. Lemme know if you want a ride in a tuned M5 :p
