Just curious what we all left behind for the F90 ///M5? What's your brief history of ///Madness ?

Pictures please THE OUTGOING car and the ///M5 F90, preferably in the same picture if at all possible!

What mods did you have on the older car and what mods do you have on your F90 now and THOUGHTS on how they compare? Any regrets?

I will try and spark this thread with

Audi S8 APR Stage II APR and RS7 Wheels, was a very fast and nice car but handling and steering were a big let down!

Zero regrets after the move! Never looked back

Thanks for posting

Before the M5 I had an F85 X5M that I really loved.
I do regret the move , but I'm still happy with the M5 :-)

I traded the 14 E63 in the background of the attached pic. I always thought the E63 was a great looking car until I saw it contrasted with the M5 ... wife says the M makes the E look like an old man car and I gotta agree. No regrets, love the M5!

2003 RS6 and 2016 M2. I was waiting for worthy replacement for my RS6 for 15 years. BMW promised AWD M5 YEARS ago as well as AWD M3/4.

I did fine with M2 in the winter with snows, but in the really bad weather I still took my RS6 (with snows of course). I drove a '97 M3 for 5 years with 5 brutal winters in Malone NY and did fine, but AWD is fantastic for more than just snow.

I would like to change it for the new X5M (if released one day ...).
Or another SUV.

Traded in 16 Escalade with Custom 22's, You can see the cheap leather compared to BMW.
Just a glorified Chevy.

Tesla Model S. P85D with Ludicrous. Great city car but lacked range for longer journeys. I'd have another EV but hey we all will. On the list for Taycan. Loving the F90. Sooo much better than F10 and E60 M5s which I fell out of love with pretty fast.

I love challenging people who have Tesla's to a race in my wife's Sienna. The race is from here to Albany and back. 4 hour drive. I win every time we try.
