    Funny you mention both, I’m torn between the two for my next car

      LS swap the e39 M5. Wish I had the funds to do that to my old e39 m5. Was too much to fix so I sold it.

          Had a bad ass e39 M5 spent 8k just to fix the vanos, brakes and suspension. Was an absolute blast to drive but exhausting having it in the shop more than I drove it.

              2003 BMW M5 for sale. Needs timing chain guides; car doesn't run properly. The timing chain is clanking around in the engine. The car itself is in excellent condition. Always garaged. This is the last year of the sought after E39 M5.
              If that were on the west coast, it would have been mine. Of course, the post is long gone, so it's a moot point now.

                  M3 Wagon

                  Crack pipe prices, but pretty sweet looking.





                  Up forsale is my custom built 1991 m3 wagon!

                  Car has real e30 m3 quarter panels and fenders, it started out as a 318 that was originally going to be a 4 door e30 m3 but what’s cooler than a 4 door e30 m3? A 4 door wagon e30 m3! All the body work was professionally done.
                  It has e36 m3 5 lug swap along with a mildly built s52 with the zf 5 speed transmission, the car runs great!

                  Cons: has a few things that need to be finished up,
                  Fog lights and front turn signals
                  Stiffer springs in the rear
                  (it torque steers)
                  The cluster Guages need repair.
                  A couple small dings and dents

                  Thanks for looking.

                      Then you’ve never driven one..

                      But seriously, my buddy has one and an M3. He prefers the 320is, and honestly I’d have to agree. The destroked S14 in the 320 is much peppier on the freeway, and in traffic feels a little more civil. Plus, the looks you get when you pop the hood are classic..

                        That was my first thought, but no pics of the interior to confirm (the custom “tan” would be an instant giveaway..)

                            I think that was the Vlad car because it was registered as an early 318 or some weirdness.
