BMW "M"....5000lbs SUVs, going back on their forced induction word, dropping manuals, getting heavy as a tank and delivering their first cars to 20 year olds.....

The kid seems real mature for 20!

Can't say I am not jealous. The father must be doing something right; the kid does not seem reckless and does seem to appreciate cars

If you look at the location of the poster, he's in Switzerland. Probably the son of a banker.

He's a hard worker. I remember when i was 18 everyone hated me for owning a 1999 M3 and a 2001 Trans AM. This was back in 2002 roughly. Good for him! Hard work pays off!

He indicates in the article that the M5 and GTS are his dad's (also note continual use of the word "we" throughout). It is nevertheless nice of him to share the experiences online.

I also appreciate his frank opinion that the S85 in the E60 is a better engine than the silly turbocharged mess in the F10; he even seemed to like the SMG. They appear to be BMW-dedicated, but otherwise Lexus needs to sell these guys an LFA - I think they'd like it.
