Still uglier than a red-headed step child.

I like it. I wish I could afford it.

The only M car that is more attractive to me is the M6. Can't wait to see that one!

How about YOU get used to it, buy one when they come out, and sell me your current M5 at a really nice price?

Come on man, be a pal and hook up a good friend. :trink6:

(and by good friend, I mean some random dude on the internet that you don't even know)

Hell, I'm all for Rost buying it as well and selling me his E39 cheap. I'll even come pick it up.

As for the E60...

Two things would keep me from buying it even if I had George Soros' cash:

1- It's just SO ugly, inside and out. Not just kind of ugly, but f*cking hideously ugly. AMC Pacer caliber ugly. It makes the E65 looks restrained and handsome by comparison.

2- No stick.

thank god for choice in cars these days.

it means that i don't have to compromise and buy the M5 just to get the m5 performance.

What's a good price for it right now?

I've been toying with the idea of selling it, puttering around in family cars (don't really need a car right now) and saving up my pennies for the time being.

You guys are evil
