"Let me say I am a beginner when it comes to high-performance cars as I am only 18, so take it easy on me."

I'm not saying I care what you own, but its just disturbing to know, if you're for real, that an 18 year old who is asking these questions about a 500hp car is driving the same streets I am. I don't have anything against young guys driving nice cars, but an 18 year old behind the wheel of an M5 is what accidents are made of IMO.
