Well here is a topic that i need help on from some M5 owners:

I have 2006 550i and a 2006 Z4M Roadster and been thinking of the M5 a lot lately. I love the performance of the Z4M and the space and luxury of the 550i and thinking that I should have one car and that the M5 would do the job. Don't get me wrong, i lover the convertible as well and might miss on that but been really thinking if i really need the two cars. Any of you went through this?

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

If you need more room and could get just one car the choice is the M5.

The Z4M is a great sport car but have some limitations. I got one for 10 days and the drive experience was amazing but the M5 is an M5 ...

M6???

I really like the car but the 2 rear seats are something I really want and I think I also need with 2 teens to get in there. I drove the M5 yesterday and what a beast of a car, amazing!

Not me, I love cars all 3 of them and if I thought I could get away with it, I'd have four.

Keep the Z4M or get an M6 convertible. Then get an M5 and also the X5 4.8is. Now you have one for every occasion. That is my BMW dream garage.

My friend's neighbor has an M6 convertible and an X5 4.8. I was going to squeeze my car in his driveway and take a pic for me look at and dream. hahaha
