The picture has a minimalist look with the shoot done inside a garage or an auto parts store. This is what makes it quite unique. Taken with a Nikon D40 and a maximum aperture value of 1.7, it comes out sharp and clean. And with the camera’s multi-segment metering and a one-chip color area sensing modes, the car’s exterior is greatly enhanced.

And look at those angel eyes, they are truly amazing. It makes the front bumper of the car alive and impressive.

The job requires the following tools; 22mm closed end wrench and a 10mm Nutdriver. You would also need a new Pre-Cat O2 sensor. The difficult part of the job is raising the front end of your car on a ramp but the actual replacement of one O2 sensor should only take around 10 minutes.

And if you have a Peake R5/FCX scan tool, now would also be a perfect time to reset the check engine light. That is surely hitting two birds with one stone.

But what is more fun is watching a parade of the awesome beast in different colors and angles. It truly lives up to its name as the ultimate sport sedan. This car not only have the power, it also have class and elan.

Here’s the video:

The drive was about 3 hours in length and took us down to Penticton from the West Side, over to Keremeos, then Princeton then up highway 3b to the Coquihalla connector.

If you are reading this post and don’t live in Western Canada – don’t worry about all that – just know that it was an amazing drive – typical of the breathtaking scenery that we are so lucky to enjoy here out west.

Add in some insane German hardware (*more on that in a minute), some new friends and perfect weather – you’ve all the ingredients for a performance car enthusiasts dream.

Ironically – my E39 m5 was the ONLY beast which came out – despite there being a number of others in my home town who couldn’t make it for one reason or another.

The pics below will tell the who story, but the contingent of brands was almost evenly split between Porsche, BMW and a very spiffy Mini that was very adept in the corners – but less so on the straightaways… given that some of these cars have 700, 800 and 900 horsepower *(yes you read those numbers correctly), the Mini was in a different league.

Anyway, we are looking forward to getting out again in July for another run and I’ll probably take some more pics then.

You will notice below that we are being briefed by a Royal Canadian Mounted Police Officer – he happened to be in the parking lot where we met in Penticton and took an interest in our little get together.

Despite LOTS of full throttle runs – I can say that all the drivers behaved and did not take any chances or sped excessively… at least the ones I can remember.

It’s experiences like this which are the reason why I own an M5.

I did shoot some hi-definition video which will take me few weeks to edit, but for now…

Here’s the pics – enjoy.

It is explained in details of what has to be done to remove the rear deck to expose the top of the rear shock mounts. It is not an easy job and the author is honest enough to say so.

There are three parts to this how to.  Here they are:
