looks like $33k buys a nice, warranty'd car too...

That does have an amazing sound.
I thought the BMW sixes sounded good, but that sounds outrageous.
- WRXtranceformed - 02-13-2007
Sounds pretty good, what kind of exhaust do you think that had on it?
That guy was driving like a pussy btw. I'm guessing the instructor asked him to drive that slow?
- Hunter - 02-13-2007
Dear e39 M5
I want to sex you up.
Love,
Hunter
PS. One day I'm going to have one of those as a daily driver.

google video description Wrote:Video of an M5 at Buttonwillow Raceway. Taking it easy on the car since the diff is chewing itself to bits, which can be heard in the video
- WRXtranceformed - 02-13-2007
That's what I figured. Why take your car on a racetrack if it has a serious problem like that though? heh
- BLINGMW - 02-13-2007
E34 is mo betta! And can be had for half the price :bow: By far the most glorious exhaust note I've heard, and it hauls ass too.
- Maengelito - 02-13-2007
good god that does sound amazing.

Maybe the problem didnt start until he hit the track, and trying to salvage whatever track time he could.
It looks slow, sure, but its pretty much status quo for a beginner/HPDE1 pace on track.
- Maengelito - 02-13-2007
after hearing the diff towards the middle and end of the video, that kinda makes me cringe.
i wouldnt say that he's goin super slow as it is an M5 and you can tell he is opening it up at various points. he obviously isnt doggin the thing like its capable of, but he's still carrying a good amount of speed i'm sure
- Hunter - 02-13-2007
By the way the instructor is pointing out every turn in, and apex it kinda looks like it might be his first lap of the weekend. Which would be another reason why he's not exactly haulin.
- ScottyB - 02-13-2007
how can anything make an explosion in a tube sound that good. crap!

Just sell everything and buy a V8... you know you want to.

He means buy a real (read:GM) V8

:?: BMW V8 in the video.
I dont think I'll ever own a GM product. Everything GM I've ever driven was a turd... and a C5 doesnt really shizzle my nizzle.
- HAULN-SS - 02-13-2007
Oh..I didnt look at the video, or read the thread before I posted...just the last two comments. Either way...i stand by my statement

Ok Feersty.
You didnt even look at the thread title?
- HAULN-SS - 02-13-2007
