OT - Truly a milestone being the first to reach 5000 posts!
Sorry this is a bit off topic but I thought this would be an appropriate way for me to kick off a celebratory thread marking my 5000th post! I can't believe how far I've come since I first discovered the greatest board on planet BMW!

I still remember the day I picked up my beast:

Pick up day!

I had the biggest sh*t-eating grin that day when the keys were handed to me. See the story here. I still remember how much fun I've had with the M5 since then! Every drive a joy, every mod even more fun than the last and every new friend that I've made thanks to this board!

Looking forward to many more posts yet to come!
