Congratulations! I sure I don't need to tell you, it was well worth the drive; or in my case the flight.
Now i just need to patiently wait about a month or so before I see "Bonita Beast" on this side of the world.....

New M5 just picked up last week in FL
Just picked up new to me 2001 Jet Black/Black M5 in Florida. Looked around in the Raleigh area, but could not find a good one.
Car had only 33K miles, weekend use, it has full leather (Dash, etc), wood trim. Just had a great drive back to Raleigh!
This site was great in helping me sort through the kind of options I was looking for as well as things to look out for.
Some pics attached, looking forward to interacting with the community (am also member of rennlist...Porsche site).
