    I posted pictures of the other two kids over on Bimmerforums, so I suppose I'll post them here, too.

      YOU sir, can make a car look amazing.
      If he's serious, have him email or PM me. I'd love for the car to go to someone who can appreciate it (or whose son can) and take good care of it. I have a few more details I can share over PM which might make the car even more irresistable.

        Except for when things break, and the mpg ;)

        I love e39 m5s though, classic style and power.

                Ben,

                awsome car. That is the exact exterior/interior color combo I am looking for. the car looks like its an amazing shape. the only thing thats driving me nuts is trying to find that same combo but with the stitched leather dash.

                any mod plans?

                  To the best of my knowledge, the leather dash only came with the Luxury interior. You're not going to find the Sport seats with the leather dash...as far as I know.

                  No mod plans...re-read the first post, she's going up for sale later this week :).

                    there out there. I've seen 2 in person and about 5 or so on ebay.

                    but yes, its generally only available with the lux package.

                    good luck with the sale.

                    trade for an e34 540i/6?

                              I know it's repetitive but damn, wherever that car goes, the owner is gonna be one lucky sumbitch.

                                I am Ben's warranty. If anyone local buys the car, it comes with a highly skilled, pretty much awesome technician. Not much I can do about the crappy gas mileage though.

                                Yeah, Ben needs a haircit.
