Bought a flywheel and clutch but sold the car before I needed to install them.
I wanted a newer, more comfortable and larger, faster, AWD car and bought an F90 M5. I don’t track it, but am aware of a very small number of owners who do. No manual for the F90 M5, but the F10 M5 had the option if you want to split the difference between new and 15 years old.

Nice. How does the F90 compare to your upgraded E90 in terms of "fun factor" driving? If you could have your E90 with a SC kit, would you consider swapping back into it?
