New M5 Owner

I have read this board for over a year, waiting for the time to change my profile to OWNER!. Yesterday was the day that I brought home the new M5. The beginning of the break-in period seems much more like a courtship!

Hey M5-Phile,

Congrats on your new Beast.

If you've been hanging around here for a year, you may have already been infected with the Mod bug. There is no known cure and is considered a severe Wealth hazard.

Any planned Mods?

welcome.. welcome.. welcome !!

This is a full service, very informative board. Be aware of what MIB has said... the mod bug is a problem that has no known cure..

Thanks for the welcoming.

Titanium/Black extended, stock. INCREDIBLE.

As for mods, this week has been a life modification and a big bank account de-modification! First wish is the chip, but I'll search the discussions before I make the step.

It is a blast and this board and members have helped to fan the flames!

The discussions from several years ago on the Universal Transmitter for doors with rolling codes made the programming a breeze.
