2002 BMW M5 Sedan 4dr Sedan (4.9L 8cyl 6M)
Wouldn't Trade it for ANYTHING
 Best all around car I have ever owned and my fifth BMW overall.  I will drive this one till it dies.  A lot of people have commented on high maintenance costs but I challenge anyone to say any high performance car from Audi, Mercedes or any other automaker is cheaper to maintain.  They all cost $$$ for the performance.  If you want cheap maintenance costs, by a Focus.    Mine is a driver, not a show piece.  But if I wanted a show piece, I would have bought a painting.  I wanted a drivers car with the comfort of four doors.  Sure there are faster car now, but they also have a multitude of complicated computers and active suspensions and systems that cost a fortune to fix.  I have had mine for 3 years now, and all I have done is tires, brakes, oil and gas.  My only complaint about the E39 M5 is the inability to change the nav/radio out in the car without a major investment due to the DSP system in the car.  But like anything, if you are creative, you can get the system work with a tablet.
