Thanks and you are correct. I had about a 140 mile drive home from the dealer and had some wide open highway where I did several 70-120+ runs. Unreal. Thing wanted to just keep pulling.

Enjoy it. Just make sure you get an extended warranty. Coming from a guy who owned 5 BMWs.

LOL yes, that thing will chew up and spit out your wallet in a second. And I just owned a 540i... I'd warranty it for as long as you can/as long as you plan to own it.

But yes, enjoy!

I never keep anything out of warranty. Bought this with 30k on it and have warranty til mid 2019 and 100k. All maintenance is taken care for an extra year and 10k beyond standard Bmw 4/50 as its a CPO. Plan on getting new body style M5 in 3 years. In the end will be cheaper to maintain than GS

Nice M5 - perfect color choice. Those are a blast to drive.

Glad you got a long warranty on it. Enjoy her!
