So my wife and I are leaving the movies yesterday and as we approach the car there about 6-8 teens standing around it chatting...As we get closer, I pop the locks and all of them look over and one of the gals asks me what series it is? I tell her it's an M5 and suddenly all them have serious interest in car - - asking all kind of questions My wife senses my obvious but contained joy and excuses herself from the crowd while getting in the car...After she hopped in, we all chatted for a bit and a couple of them asked for a ride in a joking manner and started walking around the car just galking at it...Since I live in the land of mucho Porsches and Ferrari's it's always really cool getting compliments no matter who it's coming from :cheers:

I also live in SoCal, and the very first day I got the car I got some hoots from a couple of kids in a ricer. I did a little burnout for them on Euclid and they hooted some more. I was somewhat surprised that they knew what an M5 was, moreso that they cared. Maybe that generation isn't totally lost to musclecars.

Great story! Thank you for sharing it!

When I got mine, my 16 year old son and his buddies were just as excited about it as I was!

My only other good story was at a NRA basic pistol instructor's class. We were going outside for a break. I saw two guys walking over to my M5 and when I got there the first one was saying, "Ok, who owns my dream car so I can kick his ***." From a foot behind him I replied, "That would be me." The situation was more funny since I was a good 6" taller than him. Anyway, we chatted a bit and had a good laugh. Apparently Imola Red was this guy's favorite color too.

The other day I am at my usually gas station filling up and I hear a voice say "is that a real M5?". I turn around and there is this 20 something kid standing there. I tell him yes it is, he says "I don't believe you, are you kidding?". So, I tell him, would you like to see the engine I am getting ready to check the oil level? After seeing the engine he is all jazzed up an goes on and on about the car. So, I figure what the hell, "do you wanna go for a ride?" Now he has nothing to say but, YEA!

I took him for a nice spirited ride for about 5 miles total. I figure if you know what it is and you know that much about it, he desvered it. Oh, and anyone who says they wouldn't have a stranger in thier car needs to relax, besides I have a concealed weapons permit.lovelove My wife, child, M5 and sig .357!!!!lovelove
Anyway, my latest story.
