I was on my way to work today and finally for the first time saw an M5, black, shiny and just all around beautiful! Well, it was a mid-30's guy driving it. When we reached a light, there was this completely riced out (already) IS300, (lowered and had more stickers than I knew there were even mods for that car yet)next in the right lane, (in front of me). Well, I suddenly here him start revving (probably thought it was a regular 5 series.) I saw the M5 look over, and just start laughing. The 300 revved what sounded like to the redline. When the light changed, the IS punched it an chirped the tires, the M5 laid a nice strip of rubber, (heck, I could barely see out my side window....) I couldn't believe how quickly he reeled that 300 in and just blew by him! I was lauging so hard. If I had another light before the expresway on ramo, I would let that IS try me as well... hehehehe. Anyway, jsut thought I'd share...

You don't see that every day. I have found that getting a M5 guy to race is one heck of a feat. I tried to race some M5's but the guys just won't do it. I own an ///M3 and I know I'll get my ass kicked, but just want to see by how much. Call it luck!

Yep, I see many of them around the highways...I've only seen maybe one out of ten actually speeding. M5 owners usually are usually not going around looking for a race, they know they're bad!
