wooooow, man im really on my keyboard, i love this car, and im very happy that the M5 is a good car, when i read the topics of new owners on M5board, they are pretty much the same 8) (they are pretty impressed)

so thanks for this review, its always better to hear it fro JW member

I wonder how happy the M5 owner would be to know that someone else was beating the not out of his car?

[dutchmasterflex]

there ain't nothing like taking someone else's sports car out for a spin by yourself

must of been one hell of a day at work!

So does it keep a log of, miles driven and top speed and stuff? Say that the owner could look at?

Would be hilarious if the next time the M5 owner started the car up it displayed:
New Top Speed Record Set!
155.3mph by ZFrk

glad u have fun with it
always fun to give the car some WOT

[ZfrkS62]

I've posted pics the car itself when it was in the show room, but there is no way i can pics of it while driving. That would be a little suspicious Besides, it's handling is amazing, but i would not venture taking my off the wheel long enough to snap a pic of it. my comfort level isn't quite there yet

the car is still here though. BMW may have me replace the oil level sensor and send it back to them so they can determine what needs to be changed to make an updated part.

[ARMAN]

I can understand why you not post pics and to I dont see nothing wrong driving car a bit faster if that what it takes to make it work fine then

[quote="dani_d_mas"]Dude - I envy you so much... my work doesn't offer this kind of oportunities

It must have been an awesome experience mate - and the moment 'review' was a good read!!

Congrats... and tell us what you think about the M6 and the E90 E30 once they broke down and land in your garage [/quote

Yeah but you get to race cars on the weekend. I'd glaly switch with you for a week if it meant getting to race

I wonder how happy the M5 owner would be to know that someone else was beating the not out of his car?

I"m sure he'd bitch and moan, but just because he's an asshole.

He'd be more relived if the engine blew up on us rather than him, but BMW would cover it because the oil level sensor isn't operation correctly. And since there is no dipstick to check it (again, stupid fucking idea) there would have been no way for us to know wether oil was low or not without draining and measuring the oil, which i just did.

You don't have to be an arsehole to not appreciate someone else beating the piss out of YOUR new expensive automobile.

[ZfrkS62]

i would hardly call it "beating the piss" out if it. Epecially since the engine was DESIGNED for it.

and at least this way, we know there isn't any air in the Vanos hydraulic circuit
