Congrats! So what's the score now. I've got 4 grandsons, 1 granddaughter.




Three girls, two boys. Need one more to even up the score.

The M5 makes it an even score!

Ah! The other "baby". Still working on the mandatory 1200 mile break in
procedure.
Pretty much got the hang of driving a manual without a clutch pedal though.
During break in you have to limit max RPM to 5500, so shifts are done around
4000-4500. After the break in period, max RPM is 8200 RPM with shifts around
6500 - 7000 which is getting into the engine's powerband. Can't wait to try
the "S6" mode. This car is going to get me in a lot of trouble.
