I have had ///M envy for quite sometime and it has been so hard since I lost my SC Cabrio but this made things all better now.

Here are the Specs:

2003 BMW ///M5 LeMans Blue

- 24,000kms (15,000miles)
- original owner
- LeMans Blue 2 tone Interior
- very respectable member of m5board
- 6spd manual
- Nav
- Rear Sunshade
- Homelink Transmitter
- Enhanced M Audio
- 6 disc changer
- PDC
- Never seen rain, snow, absolutely immaculate.
- All service records were scanned and pdf'd to me.


I drove an ///M5 for the first time on Monday and fell in :luv: such an amazing car. The 3rd gear pull is wonderful, i cannot explain.
I was in a desparate search for an AW/Cinn ///M3 Cabrio but the appeal of the car was just too much for me to pass on.

Here are the pics.

Cheers to all and even though i am no longer an E46er and still enjoy these boards.


May the mods begin.....

first thoughts:
- UUC Evo 3 SSK
- Dinan Stg 2 Suspension
- Tubi Exhaust
- BBS LM's or RG-R's (19's)
- Denison Icelink
- Sirrius Radio addon

Nice choice Omes. Have fun with the new car, though you will be missed on the E46 scene.

Congrats Omar on the new ride!:) It looks beautiful. However, why not get Koni V2 coilovers? Dinan suspensions are just revalved Koni shocks with H&R springs. The rest of the mod list looks superb and I expected nothing less from Omar. Enjoy the new M5 in good health!:thumbsup:

Well......:evil: .....prob not for a while.

Going to take a slightly different approach to modding this beast.

I am very curious and learning about FI for the E39 however I am very content with the near 400bhp and some exhaust work/intake and SW will make noticeable improvements.

Thanks to all for you kind words.

Cheers,

Omes.

Congrats Omar, I was sad to see the lil red cov pics :( :(
The new ride fits you ebtter ;). I also say SSK first but instead of the dinan suspension, may I suggest KW variant 2 for daily driving but v3 if you want to go all out.
Hell If you got the money to drop on suspension go with MOTON !!!

Hey Sheefy,

U got the uuc evo3 with dssr right?

any comments, i had the evo3 and it was ok ...i am kinda leaning to the RE octane as it is 1/2 the price of the evo3 with dssr.

Thanks
Omes.

I had the evo 3 uuc with DSSR and now I have the B&M.. half the cost but different. Omar it comes down to what you really want bro. Its either you want the notchy at first then smooth (oem) feel of the UUC or B&M and go with the notchy yet smooth and race like. I had both and whats in my car right now is the B&M and feels as good as day one.

Its what YOU prefer, both are great.

PS. B&M is what they use in PGT and GT in porsches all day. They like it because its cost affective.
