Hi all, figured I'd throw up a thread as I'm a bit of a forum whore and bimmerpost is a brand new world for me! I've got 1000's of posts over on Audizine under the user name HurrayFive, I've had 6 different Audi's since 2013 and it was finally time to make the switch. I'm a car guy to the bone that spent my teens wrenching on and playing with my Uncle's weekend exotic projects brought home from his shop in Sedona, AZ; a software engineer by trade with an automotive education and background, I know a lot about a little - but I'm objective and helpful wherever I can be!
I most recently traded in my '21 RS7 for the '21 M5 Comp. I loved the RS7 but it had some electrical gremlins that we couldn't work out and beyond that it just wasn't quite enough, the exact M5 I wanted wasn't available when I was shopping the RS7 and I wasn't quite ready to jump the boat to BMW yet - having owned both now, I'm very glad I did! I ran an 11.4 @ 119 bone stock in the only run I attempted in the RS, so it was plenty quick...just not quite quick enough for the price (along w/ several other nits)
Onto some pics and info!
2021 Alpine White M5 Competition
- B&W Audio
- Executive & Driver Assistance packages
- Full Black Merino leather
- All M-Performance exterior carbon fiber bits
Initial plans are maybe some spacers up front to match rear flushness and an Eventuri intake setup, eventually new wheels, just haven't decided on which yet - otherwise this thing sits pretty great just how it comes! 😎
