    For those of you that don't know, I'll been slowly parting my subaru out and looking for something more... luxurious

    Bought this last night. Sales manager slipped up and said they were sending it to auction today, so I came in with a nice submarine pitch low ball

    2006 E60 M5
    5.0L V10, redlines @ 8250rpm.
    500hp, 380ft-lb torque
    7-speed SMG III gearbox with launch control and varying shift speeds that are driver selectable

    I like it

    Damn dude, congrats!!!! Huge step up from a subaru. M5's are one of my favorite cars of all time. Does this body style have the carbon fiber roof and "M" button on middle console shifter for extra HP?

    I think only the M6s had the carbon roof. the M button is on the steering wheel

    Sounds really nice. Congrats on the new car. Def a nice upgrade from a subaru. I cant imagine how much insurance on that thing is a month.
