        New M5 Owner Checking In
        I am the proud new owner of a '02 Sterling Gray / Black M5! Can't believe that I was finally able to get the car I only dreamed of owning for so long. I upgraded from a 540i/6 and couldn't be happier. Commutes (even in traffic) are so enjoyable.
        Glad to be part of the group and looking forward to learning much from you all.
        BTW - this site rocks!

        I'll get some pics posted this weekend.
