Ultimate Drivers Event at MetLife.

I had the chance to participate in this event today, and it was a blast as usual.

If you were wondering...
- The new 5 is nice, but HUGE, and soft, as you would imagine.
- The 340i with an M Performance exhaust sounds AWESOME.
- 650i is a true GT car - we actually liked this one a lot. It does not pretend to be something is isn't, and the inside is finished beautifully.

It will be touring throughout the year, so if it stops by you, by all means, it's free to enjoy!

I was also there at 4pm Thursday and was 7/100 of a second off the fastest. Just happen to be in a group of fast drivers or I would have gotten to the next round.

Was so much fun. The 540 is a lumbering beast but it can move and is much prettier in person.

Looks awesome so you paid the $750 to drive the m cars? How about the v12 excellence and the 650 are those free or you had to pay? Do you get to test drive without anyone with you?

The v12 experience was free but I did not do it. The M class is 750. The test drives are free and they have a lot there to try!

Wow that is awesome free car free gas. I'm gonna take my girl. She likes my 340 she'll definitely like the 440 convertible! You can take it offsite? I wish we got service loaners like that! Did you do any burnouts lol. I wonder if they sell the cars for a discount after the event.

Just got back. Lots of fun, the 540 can haul butt for how heavy and big it is.

Just a heads up, if you're in the last session for the day, 4-6PM, get there earlier in the day if you want to do a test drive.

Current best time is 21.99 seconds. Our groups were at least 10 seconds off that so I can't even imagine how someone set a 00:21.99 lap.
