    If the E46 3 series & the E60 or E39 5 series cost the same which would you choose?

    Just curious if you would prefer the 3 series or the 5 series (E60 or E39 you choose), if they both cost the same and why.

    No M models.

    If it were me, I would take an E39 540 w/6-speed.

    either and E46 330i pp or an e60 545i both with the 6 speed.

    I've come to terms with the fact that I will probably not have a two door until I'm going through a mid life crisis.

    Aren't you like 18? That's a long way to go girl!

    E39 Dinan 540i is the way to go!

    Lauren WISHES she was 18. Then she could buy all sorts of terrible, terrible pornography.

    540/6 for me... uber sedans are hard AND totally cool.

    That is if I got to keep my 325is for any motorsports stuff I needed to fulfill, except dragging... 540/6 would eat my car for breakfast at the 1320.

    it's no E30 :/
    I would choose a silver E60 545 with 6 speed, tint windows and 18" wheels.


    I actually saw this car today, it look really amazing.

    Either a 540i/6 or 545i/6. With all the goodies of course.

    545i/6. The E60 is tomb-quiet inside but it is a really awesome car. The Valvetronic motor is superb, the best thing to happen to gas motors since variable valve timing.
