Where are you guys taking your M5s locally for suspension and engine work? Just got H&Rs that I need installed and don't feel like doing them myself.

Highly suggest Buckhead Imports Performance in Smyrna. They know the M5 inside and out and have done all work on mine (Pulley, Tune, Cat-back custom exhaust, rpi intake, and all maintenance). They even have the official fastest E39 in the east... it's a supercharged beast!

Haven't gotten into modding the suspension yet. Most of the E60 guys in our M\\\Atlanta group have lowered the suspension at a minimum. I've seen a lot of suspension modding on the E39, but haven't honestly seen a lot being done on the E60's. We do a lot of mountain running, so I'd be interested in upgrading myself. However, the M5 more than handled herself with the rest of the exotics on the runs!

Ended up going to Tim @ Bimmer Service and I must say I was impressed.
