Best Sports Sedan -- Period

A "Beast" in sheep's clothing. Looks like your basic family sedan, but keeps pace with a Corvette. The fastest production sedan on the planet. Plenty of power in all 6 gears. Top speed 155 MPH (182 MPH if delimited). All the fun of a sports car. All the amenities of an executive luxury sedan. Leather everywhere. Accolades from every major automotive magazine.

Can't drive slow

I've never had a car that is more fun to drive. When driving it makes you want to take advantage of its performance capabilities. The only drawback is having to drive slow or in traffic. The features, looks and quality of fit and finish are impeccable. It's not a luxury vehicle; it is "the ultimate driving machine".

The One

It's a solid, bullet proof, fun, comfortable, stable, hungry, explosive. The E39 is the best M5 ever made - and that's from seasoned BMW owners. This car holds its value because it is a value. I test drove an 00 M5 w/120,000 miles on i and totally ragged. It was still selling for 18k. This is an awesome car that still bring smiles to my grill. It's destined to be a classic on par with the e28 M5. I still drool when driven properly (100+ mph)

This car is great. The only complaint is the horn is a bit weak. By far the best car BMW makes...
