IMOLA M5 Number 3...

Well, I am back to the board again, as I have just purchased an e39 M5...and not only is it my third e39 M5, but my third Imola Red e39 M5. Hopefully, I have finally learned my lesson and figured out that these cars are absoultely incredible, and once you have a good one, you don't get rid of it. lol.

This one will also be my second full Dinan S2 car, so I am definitely excited about that. It should be getting shipped out from California in a couple weeks. My dad is actually going to pick it up for me, so I am going to let him enjoy it for awhile..Lord knows the man needs a bit of spice in his life after spending the past 8 years piloting a Toyota Avalon....blechh!!!

Anyhow, I will post pics once it shows up to the East Coast, but for now, just wanted to share my excitement!

NICE!
Was this the one @ the dealership outside of Oakland Ca with 28,000 miles for an asking price of $44?

Precisely my thoughts.

I would have waited for that color combo if I didn't think red draws way too much attention. I love my carbon bliz.

I bet it is the one that just sold on Ebay. My buddy forwarded it to me...he said he was tempted but didn't really want red (nice color IMHO).

If it is the same car, 930chas got a SCREAMING deal on a MY 2000 FULL S2 with 70-something thousand miles. (was sold for well under 30K)!

I hope I am not revealing too much information!
