    A Cadillac, A baby, and an M5

    If you dont feel like reading scroll on down to the cell phone pics haha!


    Its been a very long time since I posted here. I have creeped around just not posted. Last time I had an AA s/c 95 M3 coupe. Since then I have bought and sold a 98 M3 vert. In between my wife and I welcomed our second child into the world so it was time to step up to another sedan.

    Having always driven BMWs since I started driving I thought maybe I would step out of the mold and go a different route for my family sedan.

    Since I have always been a fan of "the V" I shopped around and test drove a few CTS-Vs but failed to find one that didnt have the common failing/noisy rear diff. and it just didnt have the feel that all my BMWs in the past gave me.

    Enter the E39 M5. One of my all time favorite M cars! I shopped around and test drove a few trying to find the right one the was bone stock. All were fantastic cars but one stuck out as "the one." By the way If you never have driven an E39 M5 before I recommend it. Its a different feeling from the M3s. It could just be in my head but the S62 sounds great and is so smooth!

    Sorry to ramble. Onto the pics. Off the cell phone for now with some crappy editing but a proper shoot is coming soon!
