The M3 has a new stable mate

I wanted to share a few pics of my new daily driver with you guys, my audi had an unfortunate meeting with a stop sign blowing Taurus, so I replaced it with this:

Audi = broken:



But I made out in the end 99 E39 528it sport + 5-spd (yup, 5-spd!) =

Nice!

How exactly are the e39 m5 bumpers different from let's say e39 540i sport bumpers?

very clean! i like

btw a good friend of mine is parting out his 99.5 1.8T body panels & all (its black though)...if you plan on fixing it....let me know what parts you need, and I can hook you up.

Niec score. Definately an improvement. Way better than the audi. I like the Mods list except for the tails. I like the stock tails on the E39 wagons (all reds). I think it looks better.
