Love M5s, driven 1 a few times and really liked it.
Would only get one in a more "stand out" colour though as in that pic it looks like a boring old mans car.
Look smart in the red they do

They are awesome cars, very very very good. BUT the age of an average M5 driver is almost 50!!!
Think an M3 would be better at 27 Do you need all the extra space of an M5?
Saying that I had a new 4.6 HSE RangeRover at 25 but I had other cars as well at the time so it wasn't all sad

Id have a E46 (is that them?) M3 over an M5 any day, but I was under the impression (never looked tho, i dont live in a dreamworld and dont think i can afford one ) that they cost loads more (ie M5s have depreciated loads).
I love the newer shape M3s, look awesome, one of VERY few cars I really love the std look.

rhys, the new m5 is a v10, the one in the pics is a 52 plate m5, v8, they do another
5series with a v8 but no where near as good.
neil s, have you heard it with those exhausts on, sounds awsome

Awesome cars mate,now wheres the Autotrader Ive driven one and the throttle response in sport is so sharp it makes a turbo engine feel cack,the drivability is great and so is the noise.
My sapphire at 400 brake felt much much stronger above 4k revs though,i thought the M5 felt a bit tame up top end,and the M3 even tamer.

I gotta admit i got a soft spot for big old powrful cars 
Though agree with Steve i would have the new M3 over it but there is a bit of a price difference. And the M3 i think is one of the cars you could quite happly buy and leave 100% std. But we know that would never happen
M5 is great but with regards to track performance etc dont their brakes get very tired after a short period because of the wieght? Just think i read that somewhere to
