I have joined the Dark Side. Say hello to Annie.








The noise this thing makes is absolutely brutal. Good balance, colossal power. All in all, not the most reasonable choice I could have made, but by god it's fun.

I'm really going to miss the S4, but bad memories don't come off with a good wax. I'm sure they'll find her a good home, meanwhile I'll be sideways at 80mph. No more GIAC, it's DINAN from here on out.

That car is insane dude... I've always been a huge fan of the M's. I'd take an m5 over an s4.... its the m3 vs s4 that gets me thinking.

Silver, that M is awesome. Love the color/wheel combo. Looks great.
Is this going to be your daily driver and keep the FD for track?

I wasn't really a BMW fan either, but the 5-series changed that. I've never been big on brand loyalty. If Kia made the fastest truck on the planet, I wouldn't have a Lightning. I look for what I feel is the best in the market segment, the Lightning is the best quick truck, the RX-7 is the best dedicated sports car, the S4 is the best compact sport sedan, and now I wanted the best mid-size luxo muscle cruiser, enter M5.

Yup, the FD is still road-legal (as far as anyone with a badge knows), but I pretty much only take her out in the middle of the night for some irresponsible driving or if there are some giants that need to be killed (Z06, Ferarri, Lambo, Porsche, that sort of thing). I'm selling the Lightning too, as I just feel it's the time in my life for a (somewhat) more grown up car. I can't roll up to do hard money deals in the frightening Lightning, you know?

The M5 is a great car, but i'm particial to the RS6 that thing is amazing to drive. Never driven an M5, but i imagine it's just like the 540 i've driven but with an extra 100hp under the hood
