Nostalgia Time: E39 M5

I saw one parked on the street in Oakland this week. It was blue as well.

These were huge when they came out. Back in 2001, I knew a middle aged guy who was the heir to a sizable commercial real estate fortune. His job was basically spending two hours a day, every day, going from strip mall to strip mall, collecting rent checks. He had this M5. 26 year old me asked him the fastest he had driven it. He said 80. I was disappointed.

    LOVED that BMW Films campaign, and Madonna in particular

    @slirt: Had those films debuted today, they would have gone viral and received 100,000,000s of views.
