New 2006 BMW M5

So my dad just got a 2006 M5. It is probably the fastest car I have ever ridin in and he didnt even go past 5000 rpm (it redlines at 8250). The break in period for the car is 3000 miles! After you hit 3000 you take it in to the dealer and they raise the rev limiter to 8250. Anyway, about the third day my dad had it my mom decided she wanted to take it out for a drive. She came back and everything looked fine. I decided to give the M a wash for my dad and I came to polishing the wheels and I saw it. My mom had hit a curb with the back right wheel and curbed it about 1/4th of the wheel! I was pissed cuz those are not cheap wheels. So I went and told her and all she said was "Woops". Good thing is the dealership is going to fix it. I will get some pictures up hopefully tomorrow, but they are going to suck since my camera sucks.

I saw one the other day waiting at a red light, when that light truned green I fell in love...The sound that car made, and the acceleration it had was just beautiful. I'd probably get the M6 if I had the money though....

Haha funny you should say that. My dad leased it for 2 years, and is then going to get the M6. I do agree though, I like the M6 alot more.

Its black, and the furthest I have gotten so far is backing it out of the garage. He said once the car is broken in I can take him out for a spin so we will see
