RMS SC ///M5 is HERE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At last...the Black M5 is back!
It has been a long wait fro me guys but all i can say after driving it for a few hours is that the wait has been more than worth it. I pulled out of the port with a dead battery and a flat tire and had to tow it to the BMW dealership to get the things taken care of. Their reaction was (no comment)

The moment they finished, i slipped into the drivers seat and .... frankly havent got out of it. Well only just to post this!!
FOR ALL THOSE OF YOU WHO LOVE THE M5 AND WANT MORE...MY ADVICE IS TO HAND OVER YOUR CARS TO RMS TODAY. THIS CAR IS A BULLET.
The way it accelreates is unbelievable and mind you I am a diablo owner! So when i say unbeliveable you better believe it.
MY FIRST KILL WAS A suped up C5 who had already killed a stock M5 but could not smell my exhaust even though i had three daredevil passengers on-board. 160 mp/h appeared in a dash!!

Moreover my freind who is the editor of the regions top car magazine went for a spin with me could not believe the power this car has got.
His words to me after a few gear changes were "dude bring on the purple bull and i'll take it in this car any day of the week"
I overheard him talking on the phone to his photographer saying "man the way this car accelerates, it felt like my soul was holding on to my body with the ends of my hair"
I know that some of you guys might be thinking that I am a bit over excited and i may be getting caried away...and frankly speaking i would accept that, had i not been crusing around in the Diablo like a maniac the night before new year's!!
GUYS BETTER START SAVING UP ALL THOSE PENNIES CUZ THE SUPERCHARGER IS DEFINITELY WORTH IT!
OH YEAH! JUST ONE MORE THING THE CAR IS CURRENTLY ON LOW BOOST NOW AND OSH WILL INCREASE IT ONCE THE CAR GETS USED TO THE FUEL HERE. UNTIL THEN GUYS I AM OFF TO KICK SOME *** OR MAYBE SEE THE OTHER SIDE OF 320KM/H,
Later,

P.S. Boston crew..... This is the latest in my arsenal and you better come here to check it out

**Edit by Gustav***

OK, putting in some pics from RMS site since BlackM5 haven't got a camera yet... Or something like that?

Regards Gustav

Boss!

Congrats on the SC M5. My heart was in pain for you the whole time you were carless here in Boston. The sacrifice was well worth it. You now have a 4 door sedan that can outrun your lambo. I am there in January. Call me, I want to hear it!

Congratulations on gettting the car! At last home

Please take some pics and video. Mail them to gustav@bmwm5.com and I'll host them asap.

Why not just a 60 mph and upwards in best gear comparison of the Lambo and the M5? That would be a NICE video!

Congratulations Black!!!! So good to hear that the uber Beast is finally running around Bahrain. As others have said, hurry up with that video !! Please take it easy on all those other victims, you do not want to embarrass them that badly.
