Facelift E38 7's, looking a 740i Sport or a 750il

Could probably afford to buy the car, but not fuel it or use it lol

E39 M5's, hoping to get one once I turn 25, prices are dropping nicely

E24 635's just for sheer retroness!

None of which I can afford to buy this year or next lol

750i on straight pipes, V12 madness made louder, 850 CSi is one I'd really love too.

E39 M5s are possibly the BMWs ever and the 635i is just a beauty.

I really like Z8s as well but the price of them is just mahoosive.

Get a late model E60 M5 07 onwards and the gearboxes are fine as long as they are well looked after. Plus a supercar like V10 howling away as BMWs second best engine.

E92 M3s need to have a decent exhaust to get rid of that horrible rattling sound they make.

The rattle/rasp I like the e92 engine is a weird one, its basically a mixture of the e39 m5/e46 m3 and e60 M3 engine all in one lol

Don't think id pump the extra money into a late e60 M5 as they are getting on a bit.

If I buy a 750il, it'll be Silver like Bond's in Tomorrow Never Dies lol

Be nice to of bought a Z8 brand new back in the day, and watch the value rise, esp the Alpina one's!

That's fair enough, I'm just not keen on the rattle, then V8 induction noise is great though and they pull much better than the E60 M5, I just have a thing for that V10, it sounds like a Gallardo with the right exhaust.

M3 GTS exhaust makes a great sound but it is expensive even with my staff discount.

I like the 750s in blue or black, something very menacing about them, mafia looking.

If you bought a Z8 new you'd have seen the values plummet then rise like mad, we have a regular customer in work with an Alpina V8 Roadster as it is called, lovely car and great to drive even as an auto.

Would he take bad money, a kidney, a lung and an eyeball in part ex for it?

He's had it since new and I don't think he'd ever part with it. I'll post a few up in a bit, just need to pillage them off my phones.

That group C Nissan just looks epic, I remember watching them at Silverstone classic, those Mazdas sound nuts.
