Order it with a 520i badge, 4 into 1 exhaust and delete the side vents.....what a blast that would be........

but seriously, If the M3 e92 is much improved over the e46 as the e60 is over the e39 then I won't be dissapointed......unfortunately the M5 is just a wee bit TOO expensive for me (unless I get Mrs diesel a Hyundai Matrix or similar and frankly that would result in complete withdrawal of any favours, sexual or otherwise!!!)

YA THAT WAS AN AWESOME!!!!! Episode! the review wasnt as good as the old E39 M5 review... but Hell it brought tears to my eyes.

Love Tiff's style... all that drifting, car control, and able to talk to the camera... very good driver!

I LOVE THE E60 M5!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. that $20 million boat was nice too... I'll take that too. Monaco...

Iwatched the programme -- Tiff Needell was full of superlatives about the car

Here's a few comments from Tiff about the e60 M5

"One of the greatest cars in the world"
"On of the all time greatest engines"
"great car!" smiles ++, & drifting round a circuit.

507 BHP - Is that enough?

Want one? He does, he couldn't stop smiling throughout the report!

Order one today (in UK) & you'll have to wait for delivery until Mid 2007
Yes the waiting list is that long!

Good one Tiff!
