They're one of the most visually jarring and ungainly looking abominations I've ever seen on four wheels, especially when you consider what you pay for one. So I did myself a favor, saved a lot of money, and got a very nice, very good looking, used E39. And I don't care that it's not as fast as a M5 of either type.
I agree with you 100% on the E60 looks, even the new 3-series, the 6 is terrible looking as well. Was at dealer today buying parts and compared the E60 4-door to the Touring and IMO the lines flow better as a Touring. Then there was the M5, ugly as sin.
I tried to like it but cannot. Now that Im thinking about it, Im going to write BMW a letter telling them to get their act together! Just cant wait to get that typical German bureaucratic (sp) response letter.
Another M5 video, although most of you have probably seen it, but awesome...
