Going to give the GF my 5 next year or two and have looked at these. Not a BMW though. Rode in a C63 amg, the "smaller one" and it was impressive. Ate my buddies 09 m3 0-60.

Oh the M4 is soooo nice and a JB4 does wonders for an already outrageous car. If you need 4 doors then maybe it's time for that M5.

haha. yes we do.

Ive been looking to buy a m6 GC but cant get over not having AWD up here in Canada. So until I get a second vehicle i'm staying the the GC.

So much conflicting info on DP's on the site about losing power its tough to know what to do. I think i'm gonna follow what ARC550 did and get a tune/DP's on top of my Juice Box and rock.

I was in this debacle for a while, and was told by some trusted BMW employees to avoid the X5/X5m for reliability reasons. I like the M4 a lot, love my 5 series, but if I end up going outside of BMW, it will probably be to the new Lexus GS-F. Love me some big V8 engine in a bad as luxo sedan.

I ended up just having BMW toss a M sport front bumper on my car and decided to keep it until it explodes.
