Thanks Flyguy. I have since added the TechArt Lowering Module and will be getting the spacers put on over the weekend.
With the newborn I haven't had the time to take pics of the GTS next to the M5, but I plan to do take some shots sometime soon. The M5 has been sitting under a cover for the past month....it needs to be opened up for some air!
Here are some pics of my M5 for the board....
....and one short video:

Flyguy,
Sorry for not responding to your PM about the Eisenmann Exhaust on my M5. I haven't been on the M5Board for quite some time.
By any chance are you going down to the Concorso Italiano in Monterey next week? I'll be there along with a number of other M5 owners.

That's right, my wife doesn't know how to drive a traditional manual transmission and that's why I bought the Tiptronic. Another reason is because we live in San Francisco, and parallel parking on the steep hills here in a full manual is a challenge to say the least! 
I've driven the 6-speed, and it's very cool. You have much better control of the car when driving agressively. It's also a very smooth 6-speed transmission with precise shifts.
I just had the TechArt Lowering Module installed in the GTS last week. It's a cool device, and it didn't diminish the ride quality, but I wish that it wouldn't lower the front of the car so much. When fully lowered, the front of the Cayenne is about 2 inches lower than the rear. I wish it was more balanced.
I'll post another thread about this when I get around to taking some new pics.

The seats in the GTS are okay. They are supportive, but I find them a bit narrow and a bit hard.
They don't compare to the seats in the M5, which I find to be one of the best seats ever designed.
