No crap!

I wish I would have known! I have been looking very seriously at a 2000 M5 the last two days. I might not be ready for the plunge just yet though.
You know me and boats. I love them as daily drivers. Plus this thing has so many damn airbags, I figure that idiot that will plow into me wont actually kill me.

Versus the Nissan, where I'd be soup.

This is an awesome daily driver that requires a mechanics touch at times. They are pretty modable but there is a definite line of the proven path and insanity...one I plan on not crossing.

I love the M5's. I was looking at a higher mileage M3 at Sears Imports and this Audi, just didn't want the extra $$ into a daily driver. It is really hard to try to justify a rwd sports car as a commuter car in Minnesota.
