Dude, I'm 17 also. I was very interested in getting an older m5, but I checked insurance... It would cost us nearly $200 a month for decent coverage on a vintage ///M car at our age. Yesterday I just went ad bought a 1992 525i, which is what I recommend you do for 5 reasons:
1-same chassis (you could literally put some parallel wheels and badges and you'd have a convincing 'm5'
2-I average 23 mpg in mine
3- the car is still pretty fast, but don't make the same mistake I did by getting an automatic. Buy a 5-speed
4-muuuuch lower insurance costs and repair cost.
5- extra $$$ that you can use to tastefully mod your car.
Hey there, I just got my license too and ny first car would be the 528i. It's passed down from my dad. And it's automatic, would u share with me why would u say it's a mistake??
