thanks for the advice. I think I'll consider the M5 seriously. Will complement the M3 nicely.
Ok, one thing, some of the 00 models had vanos problems, so make sure to check the records if they were replaced. Also check for any MAF replacements.
if you had said 02 540 i would say unequivocally the M5 but as an owner of an 02 M5, i have to say the 03 540's revised suspension brings the 540 much closer.
drive both and decide..
