[2001's X5/Z8]

I just had to bring this post back to life....


THIS IS THE FIRST POST ON THE BOARD....

 

[atomic80]

You had me there, Mike. I was thinking, "I thought Jason already had a '01 M5!?!"

Kind of ironic that the first post would be asking about acquiring a M5.

haha...I was confussed at first, then i saw your post Mike and thought WOW!...this is the first post :biggrin:

 

[Yupkwondo]

This is the first post from when the board switched over to where it is now I believe....I'm pretty sure that's how it is anyway!

This is really neat. I thought for a second that M5 prices just shot up .

 

[atomic80]

Can any of you old timers enlighten us as to what the old board looked like? Was it anything like how it is on roadfly.com?

 

[KRM]

Don't remember it clearly as I was only a browser in the early days of the board, but all I can say is that it was very simple (not roadfly.org like) and nothing compared to the bells and whistles we have today with the vbulletin software.

 

[Yupkwondo]

I actually think it was VBulletin software, just a very basic version of it, because I remember that the layout was almost exactly the same without the graphics, PM's, anything like that. I also think I remember it being a brown background...but I may be mistaken there.

Have no idea how my response above got posted here. It is posted in Paul Hughes 'track question" thread where it belongs.

Years later - really??? :1zhelp:

I'd be pretty mad if I bought a 2000 M5 in 2000 and in 2014 it was still on it's way from Germany.

LOL. BUT at least it would be still worth about the same MSRP back in 2000 at EAG, maybe even more?! Try that with a Ford Taurus. An E39 M5 that should have like less than 20 miles for a guess?

I am guessing this- being the very first thread in the forum- somehow received posts due to a bug.

Still, 14.7 years later...marvel at someone offering $5000 over msrp. That car is selling for $8k now.

 

[josiahg52]

Without looking at the posting date, I thought it strange that someone was interested in purchasing a very specific 2000 M5 for $5k over MSRP when MSRP has not been a consideration for these cars for over a decade. Then I understood.

 

[societymike]

Uh, article title link for "i5 to have 640hp" brings me here!? Looks like a repeating bug? Sooooo why not just delete this useless thread and not get bug again?
