Sweeeeet...
One of my favorite Sedans of all time.

uh, not to nit-pick, but does the passenger side front bumper need a little work?

Congrats!

WOW, not to be an echo but thats my favorite M5 ever. Flame me for saying it, but I'd actually rather have that over any M vehicle, period, M1 included (wouldn't drive that anywhere anyway)

Toss up for me.

I LOVE that gen M5...LOVE IT.

But I would also take a 1st gen M Coupe in a heart beat as well.

I haven't started looking at anything for the car yet. I'm planning on doing very minor mods like tints, a short shifter knob and a radar detector. As for the bumper, I've already ordered another one. No other mods, it's already powerful as is.

There was a nice 08 M3 white m3 sedan on red at the dealer but it was already sold... Couldn't go for a test drive

No more 335i

Great choices on your cars though. I would LOVE an E39 DD.


Fix that curbed rear passenger wheel

I love that A8. I'm glad you got the one without the oversize ugly front grille.

Sexy.


The M5 is nice, too, but the A8 wins my heart.

Nice choice on the DD.

A8s are really exceptionally classy looking cars. Love the color combo you chose.
