:xoutpost: Welcome Chucker. The 4.8is is plenty fast, but your wife in her 545i might be up to the challenge. But we're here to help!

0 - 60 in 5.9 seconds!!!

Think about doing 110 mph and feeling like you're just reaching 70 mph!!!

To put it simply, you are going to love it. It will be a good race with the 545, let us know how it turns out. :thumbup:

Welcome Chucker! You won't beat her in your 4.8, but she can't stay far away from you either. Great choice!

Welcome to the board. You'll love the car! :thumbup:

Welcome, Chuck! Glad you found us.
