M5's don't make great trackday car - they are big heavy.

They are great for Motorway cruising though

I saw alot of them where I live. Just that the driver are business type and they're chicken as hell to even let teh car go over 70+. And what car was it in the movie Transporting? Was it an M5 or a 5 series? and I drov emy friend BMW, don't know which model it is, but I know it's a Hamann. Good thing about it was that you press the button to start the engine and the seat slide out at the knees.

Yeah SDK ive bin 2 donnington quite a few times with my gud friend, as he's bin racing on the british circuit 4 nearly 4 years now. I believe i wus situated in that exact garage a few months back, wiv the team atlanta and their Clio V6 in the first round of british GT's.
M5's can be pretty gud track cars if ur in2 chucking them about and drifting, but i see wat u mean, its not the same as say driving an exige right on the limit.
