Good Luck!

Now THAT looks like a Rod Paine type of car...holy hell!
It looks fresh off the showroom floor. It's too bad it is RHD as that would make driving it in the US quite interesting...
I could easily be wrong (disclaimer), but...
That Euro RHD M5 troubled me. Some things looked fantastic, but frankly, I was troubled by the photos that the seller did NOT take. Being a professional, I would assume they know EXACTLY what they're doing.
But, I, too, initially drooled when I saw this car. I suspect it would show flaws when examined more closely.
That website has a LOT of interesting cars, including some E30 M3s. Definitely worth a look-see to gauge prices, at a minimum. Just my 2-cents...

And a VW GDI if they ever actually get here. VW told me Mar. 2014 but I recently heard it'll probably be late 2014 as a 2015 model.GaAlpinaOwner wrote:word has it he is looking at a new M3.....no E28s
In the meantime I've been doing stuff to my late uncle's 2003 VW TDI and enjoying it, especially the 48 mpg and great torque. But, still not used to not seeing the 528e in my garage and sure miss driving it.-Rod
