I have no problems with an orange colored Avant, but it would be hard to pass up the sexy blue or the sinister black. Decisions decisions

Every once in a while, i totally regret not buying the optional "Sprint Blue" color option for our Avant.

This is the color I'm referring to:

I didn't like Sprint Blue back then but I've really warmed to it.

When are you selling your Avant?

I would love to have a 5-series Touring. It would be even better if it was the E60 with that V10

No it's stock height, stock tire size. I plan to lower it on Legacy suspension + Koni's in 2014.

I really hope they make a hatchback version of the GT86. The shape looks similar to the Z3 hatchback.

Also, the F10 wagon has one of the most attractive rears I have ever seen on a wagon:

There was, however, an E61 M5 version. But, it was only available in Europe.
