New Guy Here

Tico · 11-22-2021, 02:32 PM

Hello All.

I wanted to introduce myself as I am new to the forum. I picked up my 21 M5 Comp the end of September and absolutely love it. I never thought I would be in the position to own something like this, but hard work does pay off

I've had a few BMW's in the past and my girlfriend drives an F80. I had a bolt on and tuned 17 S6 and this thing is an animal compared to that.

So far, I installed the KW HAS kit (which I might lower a tad more), 15mm (front)/12 mm(rear) spacers and powder coated the 789's. I also have PPF on the entire front and it's ceramic coated. Exhaust is on order and I have a few more goodies on the list. Just trying to keep it clean and simple.

-Robert

Thanks! Honestly, the ride is much better than stock. There are patches of roads I have to take to work that are pretty bad and I can definitely feel the difference with the KW's.

wow!! I'm not a fan of black on rims 99% of the time, but it looks so good with your color! Great choice

The black 789’s look great. They’re one of the best looking OEM wheels on any car. +1 on the KW’s, it’s a fantastic set up.

Love the Donnington! My favorite color for a BMW. Congratulations.
