Damage Control!!!

Or lack there of!

This happened aon 8/4, when the big hurricane came up from FLA and caused a lot of damage in the NYC metro area. Since the M5 is my DD, it was out and exposed in my office parking lot. I should be getting it back next week, which will be close to 6 weeks later!
Dam CF roof took forever from Germany....
I've been pulling my hair out driving my 74 yr old Mother's A220 w/ a Champagne exterior and ivory interior!! LOL Talk about polar opposites and I wanted to tint her windows to hide! As a 50yr old man, I must look like a turd in it. LMFAO At least my parents live close and it's a new Benz, BUT....
Wifey has the X7 and i'm not driving my P-car, Ferrari or Masi every day to work.
M5 goes back in the Spring, so i'll be getting a '21 M5 Comp! They are getting a facelift in '21, correct?

Lci= Life cycle impulse = facelift of front and rear bumpers, lights, larger grills, m8 grand coupe competition shocks, and larger nav screen, ect.

I'll surely post away when it's the day. Excited to get a comp, cause in '18 they weren't offered!

Yeah and as a heads up, it's $7k alone to purchase the CF roof alone!!!! Then they have to literally "chop" off the old and put on the new!!! Mine is leased thru my biz, not don't care, other than the time w/o it. If I owned though, i bet a repair like that would hurt my resale, no matter how good a job was done. I for one, wouldn't buy it....

Gotcha! It's a biz lease, so not worth it to me / overkill for a DD. However, my '14 458 has them and they are superb, also no brake dust.
Second thought, let me see what it would add monthly wise.

No worries, it's a corporate lease / I own the company. Here's what I'm getting for sure, other than the blue calipers, I chose black but not reflected in the build pic.

Pic #1: And it begins! Stripped down today and roof being cut off in am. Will be delayed another week!


Pic #2: Here's my Mom's Florida car that I am borrowing in the interim. It can't be any more polar opposite that my M5, w/ it's champagne exterior, cream interior and it's TT 4-banger churning out 180hp! Yeah it's a '20 Benz, but

Pic #3: At least I have this in the opposite bay for the weekends!
