Dude, what a sweet M5. Excuse me while I go change my shorts.
I read the thread (don't have the link handy) about new-car prep, which talked about how bad the paint can be on a newly delivered car, and how you should always detail it to clean the paint and properly protect it.
So...
Spent all day monday washing, claying, and waxing my car. I swear, I clayed the entire car and got almost nothing off the paint; I've never taken delivery of a car with such swirl-free, contaminant-free paint. Which means that, either the dealership clayed my car as part of the prep (which I highly doubt -- the kid there said he just wiped on a spray wax), or my car somehow avoided getting dirty from the transport.
Edit: I like the "PURE M" license in the pic above. In WA I used to have the plate "IMOLA M".
