Lovely? That's like when my wife calls my cars or trucks "cute".

The Fastback is going to be running a TCI torque arm setup in the rear and a TCI Mustang II in the front... to clear the 427 Windsor that's going under the hood. The massive horsepower will be lovely!

Was that a maroon M5?? I think I remember seeing one at the dealership when you were test driving the white supercab. I had a white M5 that I powder coated the stock wheels black before I Raptored my world. It would have made a good little brother for the truck but it was time to move on from the V10 beast.

Indy Red--that's the one. I miss it terribly. The sound of that motor at full-whack was magical, and the faster you went the harder it pulled. Just a fantastic car.

I had an M5 also, unfortunately it got towed all the time on flatbeds due to recurring electrical issues. The driver's never complained, but I always stood out there to watch since it was loooow clearance.



How many ******* stories are you and I gonna have in common?
I too was an M5'er at one point before I Raptored my world:

2001 e39 M5
Carbon Black/Caramel Interior (BMW's Carbon Black is more like super-duper dark midnight blue).
6 Spd Manual Trans.
Dinan Stage 1 Flywheel & Clutch
Dinan Short-Shift Kit
Hamman Black Kidney Grilles

I hit 170 miles-an-hour in it once..... I loved that car.
Clearly kglesq and Raptizzle are gentlemen of superior intellect with fine taste in automobiles.

Indeed--nice to see I'm in such fine company. The E39's were gorgeous too. Apparently I'm not the only M car expatriate who ended up in a Raptor.

So many cars, so little time. If I get my way I'll be adding a toy car to the mix before too long. The economy seems to be bringing the prices on lightly used 997 GT3's into the realm of reasonable . . .

Haha...seriously though!!

Here is a pic of the former g-ride:

Nice! Alpinweiss with murdered rims and kidneys is a great combo. What year was yours, and was it SMG or 6MT?

Had never seen one setup like that before this post, that is gorgeous. And it's not exactly an easy car to improve.
