Well, this isn't exactly like the other videos that I have posted in the past (full of tire smoke and sounds of 7k rpm)...it's a little more tame...

Anyway - I'll get some video of me auto-xing the E52 next month - but until then - you'll have to make due with this. ;)

I put it up on youtube and it's still verifying on google vid...I'll post up both links when google is done verifying...:)

Hope you like it...you can look forward to many more.

The car really pulls differently than any other Z8 I've driven - it has much, much more torque...

No shots of me driving on this one - we'll save that for next month - I was too busy taping this time. ;)

It only needs on light to let you know it's in reverse...;)

(Mercedes G class does the same thing.)

It's true...they are all automatic. But that's only the beginning of what is different...

I just saw a black Alpina Z8 right by my work on monday. I do like them and they drive nicely. The other light in the bumper is for the euro rear fog light. Be careful not to cream any of the turn signals, they are hand made and VERY expensive.
