    Default can someone "hot link" the pic of the car into the body

    of a message? Everytime I click the link... (3 times now)...my cpu crashes. Just run your cursor over the image and scroll down to Properties then "select & copy" the image's URL address then paste into the body of a new message. (or right click over the image and scroll down to "copy this image location"...it all depends on what software you're running)

    Thanks, I'd like to see this 2 door M5 that "looks" like an e46.

    Reminds me of all the '4-cylinder' RX-7s I saw when I was shopping.... And did you know that BMW makes almost exclusively V6s?

    For those of us who are addicted to scouring autotrader.com listings (yes, I am one), many interesting things can be found. 525s with a V8... 1996 540s... and that vaunted, highly sought-after 2-door M5 with the M3 body kit. Now THAT is a super-modified M5! Very good work!

    BTW- what do you guys think about the Jag XJR? Is it sacrelige to mention that here? It has similar stats to M5 -

    XJR: 4050lbs, 370hp, 387ft-lbs, supercharged 4.0L V8
    M5: 4028lbs, 394hp, 368ft-lbs, naturally-aspirated 4.9L V8

    The XJR has firmer suspension than the standard XJs, tighter steering, bigger brakes, bigger wheels. I know the M5 is naturally-aspirated, but they're both relatively large "super-sedans". I'm starting to get in to Jags a bit more, and I think I might pick up a '96 or '97 XJR. That's got a 322hp supercharged 4.0L I6. And they are reasonably priced: under $15K.
