Maybe a few cosmetic upgrades... carbon lip splitter, diffuser, grill and vents...
Improves the tyres with some MPS4S... the PZeros aren't great with regards to grip.

Nothing to wild to be honest... CP with all the CP trimmings...
HK sounds, head up display, parking cameras, mem seats etc...
M Performance sounds much better IMO compared to the standard car.

Looking upwards of 6 months + to be honest...
It was between the RS6 or M5.
Weighing up all the options and my person love of driving the M5 won.
Plus i am hoping that the V8, twin turbo, rear wheel combo will become a future classic! Lol

Congratulations friend! I looked for about the same amount of time that you did for the right car. I always have been lucky enough to afford nice wheels with a good job until my early 40s when I developed Parkinson's and officially became disabled. I love my Imperial Blue '14 CP every day as will you I am sure. Best of luck!
