Farewell Acura ... Welcome M5
So after the past 3 weeks of dealing with my wrecked (https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-photograph-gallery-96/i-didnt-think-would-happen-me-694238/) TL I finally got another car. Im sad to say that I didnt get another Acura TL S, the inventory of 2007 TL Type S (MT) with low mileage is hard to come by. I decided to take a plunge and go with " the Beast", 2002 BMW M5 with 35K miles. The M5 is amazing ... handling, power, sound, with the only drawback of watching the gas gauge go down when I put the car in sport mode! Good think gas is going down, I saw premium for $2.05 today at QT!!!
Here are some pics of my new ride.
See you around ...

Sorry to hear about the accident. I love your new ride though. I previously had an 06 BMW X5 4.8is (lease) and I will tell you one of the thing YOU will miss is Acura Nav cause BMW Nav sucks! I'm definately considering BMW again in the future though, the 335i

Congratulations!
for new acquisition!Great choice. I'm still in love with my car as the day I bought it. It's quiet but pulls away effortlessly and becomes a beast when asked. Yours has a rare color, I don't think I've ever seen it in person.
Any plans to mod it? Enjoy it in the best of health and if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Sweet ride, and a great find. I've looked around at E39;s out here and it's hard to find an unmolested one out here in good shapre with low miles and low $. I LOVE the color on the one you got. That's the epitome of the E39 generation, I haven't seen any that look better.

I hate you and nokiaman 
That is probably my favorite color on the M5..... between the blue and the red and that.
The OEM M5 wheels look perfect with that color

It's as quiet as a limousine inside but when you get on it, all hell breaks loose. Ever driven or had a ride at wide open throttle? I strongly suggest you do, you'll be sold. Hell, I remember first driving the E39 540i and thinking it couldn't get any better.
