Finally Beast has arrived !!!!

hello to all,
my M5 has arrived today and I took first drive, UUUUUUH, thank you God,
first stop was (guess ???) gas station, and while I was filling my tank on
the pump next to me stopped black bmw5 with M5 front spoiler ,
4 exhaust , big alloys (not M5) but NO m5 mirrors ???? here we go again
another one wants to be M, and before I payed my bill he started and pulled off ???!!!
Hey, wait for me just few seconds, I was hoping, and then guy from gasstation said -'don't worry that was ONLY 540' .
I was realy loking forward for my first race because after that gasstation is long and straight line but I guess better luck next time.
Anyway, this is amazing car, more I look better it is.
Tomorrow I will take some picture and post it here.

cheers everybody

Congratulations

Are there many M5's in Croatia? I imagine there must be a few in Zagreb.

iMac,
Congrats on the Beast!

Get used to stopping at the gas station quite often, especially if you have a heavy right foot

Enjoy!

Congrats on your new ride

A 540 with the mtech kit is fine and not a poser at all. The 2003 model has this option stock. Now applying quad exhaust is a perf increase and it does look better then the standard. Is that a poser...nah.

What I don't like is when ppl put a M5 badge on there non M5 ride. That is grounds for a Biatch slapping IMHO.

The 540 is no M5 but, it's no push over on the street either. There are quite a few moded e39 540's that will give you a good run.

Enjoy the ride!

Congrats on the new car!
I'd personally feel more gratified hearing what you did from the gas attendant, than wiping the floor with another 540. At least he recognized the real deal.
