I've told some of you this story before, but I had the privilege of being invited to BMW's driving school down in Greer, SC years ago. Most fun I've ever had as an adult! Got to drive all the models on the road course, along w/ the X5 on their offroad course. M5 & 740i were my favorites!! M5 was truly a beast, & had the throaty rumble to offset that sophisticated styling! Handling of 740i was phenomenal for how big a car it was... Literally point & shoot through the slalom w/ no pitch & roll whatsoever. Made me a beemer fan for life!!
