Congrats! I'm with Luke on the front badges but I'd also put the badges back on the trunk as well. Just my opinion though, looks great either way! Enjoy in good health.

Good choice Jong, everyone knows that the silver ones are the fastest ones, badges or not.


Hope it treats you well.

I don't know about the color, but no emblems should make the car lighter!

If I didn't need to have a back seat, there is no question I'd want a BS...

I just sold my lightly modded M5 about three weeks ago. M5 is an awesome car on the Freeways! The BS feels like it has similar level of acceleration to the M5 at ~70 mph + speeds.

Thanks, I agree.
When I was younger, I always liked a very stiff suspension.
But I when I have my M5 on "sport" suspension, I find it almost undriveable, how stiff it is. I must be getting older...
My concern would be that the BS would be too stiff.
Interested to hear your opinions on the ride quality of your BS...

The ride quality on the BS, with the tire pressure adjusted for street(I have mine on 42/38) is comparable to the stock M5 in "normal". Perhaps a tad firmer, but not quite half way between "normal" and "sport".

Looks great. But the irony is too funny for me; one fuel guzzler and the other one a miser.

It is not an irony. It is a perfect match! Around here(Los Angeles and vicinity), there is usually a lot of traffic so performance does not matter much anyway for the daily driver. What I save in gas during the week, I use it up during the weekend!
