If you're like me and had to give up the vette or some other two seater toy for the family....the 540 six, or M5 should certainly delete and sadness! This car is great, and if I didn't see the 4 doors it could easily pass for a true sports car. I've disappointed a few cars including a CLK430, 99M3 (modified) and recently the new 350Z. It's the best all in one car I can think of at the moment that provides family time and performance driving!

Uber Wagon

2001 BMW 5 Series 540i 4dr Sport Wagon (4.4L 8cyl 5A)

Not only the best wagon on the market, but the best car. The wagon actually gives you 50/50 weight distribution. Handles better than the sedan. The extra torque of the 540 is worth the investment. I have used it to haul and road trips, etc. Did a euro delivery too, so got to drive it on home turf. Seeing euro delivery is actually cheaper, one would be crazy not to buy that way. New wagons won't be available (E60) til 2005-06.
