Saw an M5 the other day.....

Bimmerista · 10-31-2005, 04:58 PM

Off topic for forums but could not resist: I passed by an M5 with engine running last Saturday afternoon. Black on black. The sound of the engine was unbelievable, a deep rumbling. Car was stopped on the side of the road. I lowered the windows to hear the engine (wife looked at me in disbelief as it was cold outside). The mags are HUUUUUge on that car, I'd love to see the "BMW recommended winter tire set up" for that car (the recommendation problably is leave car in garage and buy an X5).

Anyway, I have now officially seen two M5s in my fair city of Montreal, one at the dealer (SG and black) and the one I saw "live" and running. Truly a spectacular car, cannot wait until they finally unveil the M3.

The E60 M5 is awesome.

M5 -

M6 -

I've seen one M5 in person but it was parked at the dealership when I cruised through on a sunday. I was thinking about going to test drive it but who am I kidding, like I have an extra 80K laying around.

Someday...
