2006 M5...i drove it :) with pics
Wednesday, March 22, 2006 8:27 PM
well...after a long time i convinced my dad...we got in touch with a seller and got it for about 2g's below msrp...as far as im concerned...its a steal...still to rich for my blood and i know a lot of people would rather spend the money elsewhere but all i can say after driving it through some nice curvy and bumpy mountain roads is WOW...the sound alone makes this car worth it...if i were to get one i would wait for the 6 speed manual but still wow...















in magazines and slightly in these pictures it looks larger than it does in real life...it look suprisingly small in real life yet the interior is suprisingly roomy...it definitely does not drive like a 4000lb vehicle...

these pics were not taken in our home state of maine...i went down with my father to pick it up and we drove it back together...i am really looking forward to doing a much needed photoshoot with my 540, my dads m5 and my newest project which is soon to be delivered

This car is way cooler than the m6 IMO... best looking car in its class, i think. it gives the e55 a run for its money.

Did you set it up to full power? Top gear tested it and weren't that impressed then they mentioned that the computer isn't always set up for full power. It took them a while going through the I drive but once they did they loved the car.

Definitely a sexy looking car. I see a black one in my town every now and again.

Have a good one,

i definitely pushed the "m" button for full power...and i definitely melted the tires in first and second...my dad is pretty cool and knows that i can handle it...its alot easier to drive than my 540.....

my dad sold his consulting firm a couple of years ago and is semi retired now but is selling real estate for fun

it seems that cars get exponetially nice up to 30k.for example a 30k is hands down ncier then a 15k car..........but a 45k car or even a 65k car is not leaps and bounds better then a 30-35k car..........my ramblin aside........nice car!

well, looks like it's time to cash in my parents' life insurance policies...







VERY nice car, but to be completely honest, i'd rather have an E46 M3 for half-price

Nice so sweet i have always like the M cars from BMW. I want to get an M3 but my wife won't let me. Not like we can't afford it. Oh well she make a good point, do i want to do vacations etc.. or buy a car.

the gaz guzzler option is not an option its a tax....thats 3700 bucks that goes to the government becuase they can take it.

as for the M6 they are still pretty hard to get a hold of plus my dad likes the idea of four doors...and yeah e46 m3s are very very sweet...i have owned and sold one however the new 5 is more roomy and faster...and depending on the track the m5 would still hold its own against the e46 m3 unless it gets real tight....plus e46 m3's are everywhere in the summer...m5's of any generation are far more rare

this maybe a stupid question but other than a chip and a exhaust what can you do to modify those things. lets say I won the lotto (yeah I like to dream) and want to buy either a m5 or a m6 I want to be able to keep up with a zo6 easly. would it be possible? also I was looking on the "M boards" and I know they make turbo's would that be a alt. route?? man listen to me I'm getting my hopes up on something that may never happen. sorry for rambling.
