why make smoke when you can just get a camaro and do the same thing? i would personally rather see an M5 going really fast through a canyon.

Don't forget the wear on the front rotors and pads, since he's obviously using a Line-Loc.

If this guy felt $850 in rubber was worth the 2 minutes of coolness, then I guess he feels he got a bargain.

Looks like an awful investment to me though. Two minutes later you have worthless tires and are still dating your cousin.
