My Saphire Black Beauty and Speed Yellow Bee

Hi all, I just took delivery of my E60 M5. Compare to the 911 turbo or the E46 M3, the driving experience is very much different. I like it! Here are a few pictures I snapped today, hope you all will enjoy it as much as I do.

The M5 is a great car, you'll enjoy it a lot I have a question about your 996: Do you have a full Techart exhaust or only the Techart tips?

So what is your thoughts compared to the two of the cars - simply as street cars?

Nice picks - and thanks for sharing.

AP 650 kit going into the car soon, waiting for the intercoolers to arrive and will start work really soon. Which is faster? The M5 is more linear interms of power delivery and the TT just kicks in and push you right into the seats when the turbo comes in life. Sort of like the drop of roller coaster..

So the TT is faster than the M5?

I would think it would be - but you have them - so you are the one to comment.

I would imagine that with the TT - it would be a rocket and big smile power...

Thanks for sharing the pics..

Congrats on the new car. It looks just like mine did until I started modding!!

Break-in sucks, but once you get past 1200 miles it will be a blast!! Above 6000rpm's the v10 really pulls, and at 8250rpm it sounds unbelievable. Throw on an Eisenmann Race exhaust and you'll love it!!!
