C32R vs ///M5
I was driving to work this morning and as I come near my shop i have this black E39 BMW M5 blow right past me and start tapping his brake lights. I assume it was a challange so I take a small detour since i still had 30 minutes to spare and follow the M5. We both made a Uturn and came up to a light. When the light turned green we both hit it.. let me tell you, this was the best launch I had EVER done with my car, no tirespin, gripped and got to go full throttle in 1st gear with all grip.. well obviously right off the line I already got 2 cars on the M5.. by about the end of 3rd gear I already had at least 5 cars on the M5. All this was near the place i ran the SL55 a while ago. Anyways, after we ran, i just sat in the right lane cruising by slowly and the M5 with an aggrivated driver is flying down teh street to try to pass me after I already claimed victory and slowed down. I dropped it into 2nd and as he flew next to me with full momentum, I hit it again, get right next to him and feather the throttle staying next to him and waving at him. He looked over with this look of amazement and kept going as I slowed down and pulled into work. This guy was probably in his 30s, with a gotee and all wearing an ///M5 hat. ...great way to start a morning.

Nicely done Benzo! It's gotta be nice when you can utilize a few extra minutes before work and enjoy some of the 'finer' things in life!

M5 was Sick...
Something was wrong with an M5. .
You wouldnt get 2 or car lenghts on an good runing M5...
I've race C32 my M5 before...he was stock and I was stock...I beat him...by 2 cars up to 160-180km...
I am sure with a modded C32 you would of been able to beat a reg M5...but not by that much...

Congratulations!
God i wish i wasnt 7000 miles away! I would have whipped you so bad you probably would have called in sick!
But then again, I'm the kind of guy who would have pulled you over and offered to buy you coffee!

I have been offered a 2002 model C32 AMG ( white ) with 15,000 kms on the clock. Its got 19 inch brabus wheels on it! I know the owner and he offered to sell it to me for $40k !
Does that sound fair?
