Guys,
As some already know I am no longer the proud owner of an E60, as of a few weeks ago now I have traded to an M3 due to a change in circumstances meaning that the E60 was no longer required as my 5 door car transport, so an M3 is fulfilling a boy-hood dream
M3 S54 Special Edition in Silverstone I with Estoril Dark Blue Leather, all usual specs plus SMG & AC Schnitzer Suspension:

Hope to hang around here with my E60 brothers if I am allowed

Congrats!
A really, really nice Classic
Never to be sold, driven on the weekends,
between that stored in the garage!
The car will cost more than you payed for it now,
in 2025 if mint!

damned poser.
What do you still want on here, then ?
On a more serious note, I have seen the car in the flesh a few weeks ago and it is an absolute beauty

Nice change. An M is still an M after all. Don't think you regret it much...i also regret since a 4 door 5 seats E60 is too much for me, i'll also swap to a 2 door coupe, maybe the new m3.
You'll always be welcomed here whatever bimmer you drive. Care to comment the + or - between the 2?! What + has the diesel except the economics and extra space?
PS: Drive it well and enjoy. And i real mean drive it hard and enjoy that sweetness of an engine!
