It's the lights that ruin them, side on they look ok. It's a shame though, cause I've always liked BM's. I'de much prefer a SL65 AMG, despite the 'slight' price difference.Rob Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/19020-v10-m5/page/2/#findComment-277025 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Im not a fan of the 5 series styling but in M5 format and In the flesh I quickly changed my mind..Saleen that slight difference is about 100k..

I think BMW have gone a bit 'AU falcon' - aghhhh. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/19020-v10-m5/page/2/#findComment-277199 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumpen Poison Fish. Poison Fish. TASTY FISH!!! Donating Members 5,181 Member For: 22y 2m 2d Gender: Male Location: The Bogan Shire Posted 29/07/05 12:07 AM Share Posted 29/07/05 12:07 AM M5's have always looked good.Right from the early E28's, the then next one (and the last Straight 6 M5), the E39 M5 is a classic, tough yet understated...this one, not too sure, I think you'd have to see it in the flesh...In the $10,000 to $15,000 price bracket for me the picks are (Sorry for the OT):1964-68 Jaguar 3.8 S Type with Overdrive Manual1965-67 Daimler 250 V8 Saloon1984-87 BMW E28 M5 (Euro Spec)1993-95 ED XR6 Manual1993-94 ED XR8 SprintEven though I like the E28 M5, I think that the E28 M535i, which can be had cheaper, is still quite a nice buy.Lumpy Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/19020-v10-m5/page/2/#findComment-277205 Share on other sites More sharing options...

drcook Member 752 Member For: 20y 8m 28d Location: leonay Posted 29/07/05 06:40 AM Share Posted 29/07/05 06:40 AM alot of people have said the 5's a shocker (looks-wise) but I think the 5 and 7 series looks great, especially the M5. the sh*t looking ones are the 6 series with an arse like a pig, and the z4 which looks like it was deliberatly crached before making it to the showroom.

I really couldnt come a the new one. In the flesh its a different story. I can't help but think that its lost some of its agressive looks. This one is my car....I have never posted a pic before!
