It seems like he spent a TON</B> of money on that car (over 100k total+car), when he could have just gotten a new M5. I guess that doesn't make sense to me, at least. I think he has got some people who don't like him because of the 'bulbs' he sells or something like that. Also, I know he gets a lot of crap on Bimmer.Org for having that 4.4i badge on the side of his car, taken from an X5. Oh well, to each his own right, but it is a damn fast car.<P>-Drew<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>Hmm..I think he also got bashed b/c he was a bit too cocky and setup that section to make fun of other ricified bimmers. The lights he was selling are junk~! Can't believe someone spent so much money on his car and would use that kinda cheap bulbs on it just so he can make some money selling the r1ce bulbs.<P>At first the car was kinda inspirational, but when he started to sound like a 10 yr old as he bragged about he is the only one in the US got so many 'Dinan Points'...I kinda started feeling sorry for the kid. Surely Dinan's got some very cool products, but they are not the cheapest source you can buy for the same stuff you can find elsewhere.<P>Almost sounded like....'Yeah, I'm the one pay the most money to Dinan, no one else has spent as much as I have.' I think I will still take an M5 over a SC 540. M5 should have some more room left for improvement.
