    Suck
    Ok, I admit. I'm drooling, although for 23500 I'd probably buy a house first.

    Go ahead and bite. Plenty for everyone.

    holy hotness... I want it. Granted, it'd be better if it were a Daytona Violet Touring, but I'm not complaining...

    was it just on the euros (or M5s?) that the economy needle is an oil pressure guage? That's really sweet!

    For an S38B38, I'd drive a purple car. I don't even want to think of how much parts are, though.

    I thought it was an oil temp gauge on M5's?

    .
    All M5 clusters have oil temp versus economy gauges

    This one was on eBay at the end of last year. Nice car, though for the money I think you could get a loaded '95.

    low milage, nice looking. For someone who prefers the narrow grill cars, i think it's a decent price.

    aah, that makes sense. You probably wouldn't care about fuel economy in an M5 anyway. Thanks for the clarification.

    ditto, daytona violet is my favorite color on an e34.

    My all time favorite color is 'black orchid' from the 73 MGB.

    I guess we have opposite tastes, I wish my black car was purple, and my other car is yellow! I wouldn't want my BMW yellow though

    That's a sweet car with a Fairly low mileage new Factory Engine, that car was in Washington with the previous owner / importer for a while. I sold this one owner 1993 DV Euro M5 3.8 last month to buyer in Oregon for more $$$$ ($20,000 Cash + 1991 M5). They are getting rare to find in Europe in decent shape to import to US, so what's already here will get preserved and hopefully increase in value in the long run...
