Well, I've "lurked" long enough. Just bought (1+ months ago), a pristine 1993 M5 68k miles, J conforti chip, Fahey track pipe, H&Rs up front. Reviewed all the archives beforehand. (Thanks for insight from you all. Helped my take the plunge.) During my quick research, I was impressed by all the posts describing how fast the car was. Since I've owned it, I wasn't that impressed, well until...this past weekend, in a defensive maneuver, I dropped a few gears and got on it to about 6k rpm. Holy s__t, the thing rails. Up until then I thought it to be only "quick". Darn near made me giggle...and I don't typically giggle.
In the near future, I'm going to part with a few items that came with the car that I don't need in the garage (original springs, original CD player, full bra - Colgan 512?, and the track pipe - cats going back on, its a little too loud). Would rather get the stuff to one of you out there rather that screw with classifieds. Feel free to e-mail direct. Gathering funds for Double M parallels.
