Is it just me, or what???
Has there been a recent rash of folks getting rid of their M5s? What's going on?

I was afraid of that one, Chris, but was trying to keep up-beat about it because anyone selling under such circumstances isn't too happy about it.
It's a real shame. Oh well, there will be other times.

I think it's more that people who bought the car when it first came out have had it a long time, and no matter how great a car is after a year or two its time for something new. I think BMW is to blame for introducing the M5 so late in the 5 run and taking so long to make a new M5. Shame on you BMW for making me even think about buying an MB CL55 or Audi RS6.
