I kinda agree with Gangsta in that the M5 is for 50+ year olds but I absolutely love them.

M3's are common as muck but the M5 is classy IMHO, full power mode - what a concept!

Nice one Nev....

I think Gansta meant 50+ year olds and Solicitors

Stopped and had a look at one today in the BMW garage in Springfield, Dark Met Blue, does look very good - love those 4 exhausts, just like the sazo's down the sea front - but for real, but then I am getting nearer to 50.

When youve been in a GT3 RS for 6 months, I guess the M5 is a rest while he waits for the next MONSTER

A colleague at work told me that his son's BMW showroom had sold an M5 last Friday, was quite an occasion apparently as they rarely get them in!

On his website...

On 22nd June 2006 I bought an E60 BMW M5. I have another Porsche on order, so decided to see what the M5 is like while I wait.
