Yay! New car
« on: November 01, 2008, 02:18:26 PM »
I finally went ahead and got myself a bimmer. It's used, but you couldn't possibly tell if you looked at it.

'99 BMW M5, 50000 miles, with movit brakes, eisenmann exhausts and Breyton Imagine rims. I absolutely love the sound of the V8, especially firing it up on a cold day.
The car performs as expected, and does the 0-60 mph in 5.3 secs  :rock









Oh and the price wasn't bad either: 19000 Euro.

As you can imagine, I'm ecstatic :)

Daniel

Beautiful car.

I was thinking about changing them to the BBS Le Mans 19 rims, but the Breyton Imagine look much better than in the pictures... and the sound from the V8 with the eisenmann exhaust is addictive! :D
