I know the usual suspects are at CES, but I'm still planning on Belle in the A.M. Then I'm headed to PPL to test drive an M5 (SMG).

8am Belle
10am PPL

 

Got nothin' better to do so I'll see you there. May even watch you spend your money on an M5.

 

MI7 says you have some thoughts on the SMG.

 

Have fun on the test drive. I didn't really like the paddles on the '08 Z4 when I test drove it. It's probably different than the SMG on the M5 though. The '08 335i automatic was fun though (the one I test drove didn't have paddles). The '08 M3 manual was a blast to drive.

 

Enjoyed the M5 today. I'm driving the 550 at a friends request. Funny story about running out of gas, may or may not be involved.
