[censored], sorry guys, I meant to post this in the "other cars" forum.

M5>E55>M3, let alone G35s. If you can afford it, go for it.

It is simply stunning. I can only dream of ever get my hands on this car, but from what I've read they'll be limited production numbers (of course), there will only be a limited number coming too the US (of course) and more importantly they are about 40 grand out of my current price range.
But one can still dream.

Its an impressive machine. Not a big fan of the styling - its been Bengalized unfortunately. I like the look of the old M5 better.

The engine is sweet though. They got it right this time by making a high revving engine with a short stroke, instead of the M3 engine which is a high revver with a long stroke which is a recipe for mechanical catastrophy.

Bengalized? Id say more like Maxima-ized. Look at the back angled shot...the windshield, width and exhaust tips SCREAM maxima to me for some reason. I really really really hate these new BMW's. Even with how fast these things would be, Id rather have a current M over these any day.

Love it! If I had 90Gs to blow it would be on this. I think it looks great, is super fast, rare, what more can you ask for? Hell I would even take a 545.

[_crazi4speed_]

exactly I would also like to know like what??

same style I must add...

this would be in the 80-85k range and I would get a hold of this when its 2 years old..in the 55k range

I think it makes more sense that way..

0 to 60 is 4 seconds and a 7 speed manual.....I like that combination!!

S55 is a different class though. Maybe if there was an M7...
