Gorgeous spec! Would love to do either PCD or ED myself in the future!

I saw that you’re adhering to break-in suggestions. What’s the consensus on this - do we still care? I’ve done this to my past 2 BMWs, but am wondering whether I’ll have the discipline when the M5 arrives...

Thanks! I wish ED were still an option. Sadly, they killed the offering last year.

I’ll follow the break-in suggestions until 1,200 miles and first service is completed. You can still have a ton fun without full throttle. Avoiding the use of launch control is taking a serious level of self-control.

Well - knowing that we only have 100 LC starts for the life of the car make it somewhat of a rare thing to enjoy, no? I’m a little bummed over that limitation, but of course plenty excited about the “normal”
excitement the M5C offers.

I'm not overly concerned by it. Someone will find a work-around eventually.

Car looks amazing, especially those shots at the Blue Ridge Mountains!

Congrats and enjoy your new ride!!
