Had a quick shoot, the pictures came out okay I suppose. The day was ****ty so I couldn't capture too well. As mentioned, I might be getting rid of her and replacing it with an E60 M5. Just seems to make more sense right now but we'll see what happens. Its either that or this thing is getting modded big time.

car looks great. I'd say keep it and modify, but then again you may need the four door.

E60 M5 is hot as well! I guess it all depends on your needs. My opinion is keep both if you can swing it...Turbo for weekend and M5 for daily...that what I did with my E55.

911 is a true sport car but the M5 is more of a sport sedan, both are great automobiles and it just depends factors like are you using it daily? Do you need the 4 doors and trunk space, and do you like gadgets such as the iDrive?

Here is a picture of my M5 with DPE wheels. No matter which way you go, it will not be a wrong decision.

Really get your arms around the value for the E60s... freefall is an understatement.

If you are buying used, there is a rumor that CPO warranty might come out soon. Of course m5board.com for all things M5.

A

PS What wheels are those? sizes?

good luck whatever you end up doing

Ideally keep the Turbo and pick up the M5 too--M5's are great cars. I actually wish I had one right now as a daily driver. Really great looking 2004 Porsche--the wheels and the roof enhance each other perfectly. The chrome rims on the wheels are a great touch too. jaj
