This reminds me of Jeremy Clarkson's reaction when he demonstrated the consequences of skipping the RR crossings by crashing a train into a Renault minivan.

(Jumps up and down, pointing) "Oh! That's toast!!!!"

Seriously though, that musta been freaky. I remember someone on Bimmerfest had their X3 burn up on them also. Wierd......

And the caravan fire he set while cooking.

That is one toasted M5.

I thought it would actually be "toast" with a imprint of an M5 in it, like the virgin mary or what not....

That is one helluva car-b-que. It must have been really, really hot to burn it up so badly.

I wonder how the dealer will try to deny liability.

Now only if they could fully extract the capabilities of the 6MT on the M5 and M6.......such as not dumbing down the ability to shut off DSC. I wonder what a 7-speed manual would shift like........
