what do you guys think about the E39 m5 vs E46 m3 I had the m3 it was very good car but I was thinking of the E39 m5 but want to trade my Evo 9 for the M5 do you guys think I should?

 

I'd trade the evo too! Prices are getting quite nice for both of these cars.

1. Do you have any children?

2. Which one do you find more asthetically pleasing?

Answer these questions and I can give you an answer.

 

((( I just sold my E39 M5 last week. I still have my E46 M3 though. Now my M3 is for sale!

M3 = ***** out race car
M5 = ***** out highway monster.

Watch the repair costs though. If you have any more questions PM me.

 

If you buy a good well kept later model should have no problems,great highway beast. also if you are looking for a garage queen I have one possibly for sale.

 

I have an e39 M5 and I'm keeping that thing until it becomes a classic. I love the car and would recommend it. It may be difficult to find a low mileage example, but they're out there. I'd look for a 2001-02 as they were updated mid way through the life cycle of the range.

 

I have a 2002 M5 wht/imola I love the car it's a keeper for sure!

 

I have had both as well. I sold the M3...
I think the M5 is timeless....... The cost can be pretty manageable if you don't have a problem doing the work. Cam sensors are expensive to have installed.... but are really a piece of cake... just an example.

 

I had a 02 m3. I loved it, but ive always wanted the e39 m5. It has everything you need. It's roomy, powerful, fast, sleeper, and i think its one of the last beautiful bmw's. So when a 02 m5 lemans blue/blue black interior came along i had to trade my m3 for it. The only thing I miss is the m3's handling. Other than that I think that the E39 is the best car money can buy!!!!!

 

I'm looking into an 03 m5 same color but it has 63000 miles they are asking 27000 is that too much the car has all the records
