Yes the wood is real wood. And yes the smg is tits... have you played with launch control yet?

Its a beauty man, but too much car for me. When it comes to M's Ill stick with the M3's. I just feel too old in a 5 series of any sort.

Well done and congratulations.

nice pick-up. two of my buddies have these w/ the SMG as well. I think you made a good choice getting the SMG afterall you do have a turbo e30 , it's nice to have something comfortable and fast that you can get in and let the knee rest..lol

nice.. congrats. my only issue with 5ers is that the weight and added maintenance costs. when i sell the 540 i'm going to a 3er.

Congrats man! I would buy that car for the engine alone. Over 100hp/L, 8250RPM, 12.0 CR, 10 forged cylinders, aluminum, ITB's, GAH it is amazing!

No, I haven't. Not sure how to do it yet, but I know I'll get that figured out. Thing is, I don't go dumping the clutch on my other cars and I don't want to beat this one up either. The older I get, the more mechanical sympathy I have. I probably will do the launch control at least once, just to experience it, then feel guilty. ;- )

I don't know, but I assume it will be shit. Then again, the 540 isn't a Prius and the E30 slurps gas like beer at a superbowl party.
