It’s not like they modification the engineering of the wagon, well only measure… it’s still got the 5.0 liter v10, and the same chasis. Technically, the m5 “sedan” isn’t a sports car either. How many sports cars that you positive of heart 4 population richly? And besides, what kindred requests a 500 hp mechanism to lug groceries around? the AMG wagon area the audi R8 btw, which is Audi’s flagship sports car

“McSuzie” C63 AMG is a sedan and the the float is complacent for a sports car. The C63 AMG is a sports sedan. The M5 is not a sports car. Its a Treat Sports Sedan. Ever heard of those? Those are like the C63 AMG and such. My meat is that a GT-R almost bewildered to a Wagon and no one can see that because they contemplate the GT-R is god. Lamentable.

“Lossforwords78″ Stopping-place kidding yourself. The R34 is way better than the R35. The R35 has too much tech to servants you stab to be a authentic sports car. Its like the car drives you, not you driving the car. The R34 is also a skyline, which the R35 is not. The R34 is so safe, that to some states its alley interdicted. Your comparing a comprehensive governmental to a M5? A ancestry Enormous patriotic is not faster than a assets weigh up M5. First-class jingoistic are starve oneself because most are modded to dawdle.

if you in actuality knew anything about cars, and justified watched the videos and took them for what they were before spewing refuse out of your oral cavity, youd be informed that even a source m5 competes with some lambo models such as the gallardo and whatnot, regardless of the m5 being a much bigger, heavier car, and the lambo being build from the ground up, specifically for put one's foot down

gt-r is a car for idiots who fair-minded wanna go intemperate and aren’t authentic enthusiasts. straight the really that they dont forth it with a beau id transfer opportunity goes to show who they intended to shop the car towards. id take an m5 touring anyday. If im gunna lay out $80,000+ on a stiff end car, i wanna be gifted to press it all the together, in every practice, not reasonable sunday drives

What is the better car? The 2000 BMW M5 or the 2005 BMW 545i?

I'm looking to spend around $30k, for a nice, powerful, safe, and practical car. I've narrowed it down to the BMW 5 series. My problem is that I can't pick between the two models. The M5 seems like it's going to be a classic, especially since there's only such limited numbers out there. It's also an absolute beast with it's 400hp. Plus, it's always a great thing to brag about having the M badge on your car. However, the gas mileage is atrocious. (13 city/ 22 highway)

Then there's the more recent 545i. It has about 320hp, which I don't know is a huge step down. I can only find models in my range with about 60-70k miles, so that's probably high, and it's expensive to repair these cars. However, with the introduction of the 550i, the 545i is surely to go down in price soon.

Which should I opt for?

Unless you have a very special and sentimental reason to get a 2000 M5, I would recommend buying the 2005 545i. Both cars are excellent machines, but for the same price, you are getting considerably more from the 545i.

The M5 is based off the E39 chassis, a design that is now over 10 years old. The 545i is based off the E60 chassis which debuted in 2004, so it is a much newer car with many updates to not only its looks, but to its electronics systems, interior ergonomics and driver interaction. BMW's iDrive was added to all 5 series cars for model year 2004, but navigation is still optional. Radar-cruise control was also optional for the E60 5 series, but it would be a hard find on the used market. The E60 5 series is also quieter than the previous generation.

In regards to performance, the 2000 M5 is a very fast car with a 0-60 time of 5.3 seconds. But the 545i is also a powerful car with a 0-62 time of 5.8 seconds (5.9 Auto). For the .5 seconds you would lose, you gain a little bit in fuel economy (18 city/25 Highway) because of newer engine technology and a 6 speed automatic transmission.

All this said, owning an ///M branded BMW is a great experience especially if you are a BMW enthusiast and would take great pride in owning a Motorsport car. However, they are indeed more expensive to maintain, repair and operate and for the same price, you can get a much newer and updated car that is still an "Ultimate Driving Machine."
