Surely 50% too expensive?
Sure it's expensive but it is a main dealer. It's cheap when compared to hexagon! Surely 50% too expensive?
My E39 M5 is on 113k, but as LHD will atest it runs rather well. Sadly for threadists it won't be going anywhere until I get my grubby mits on a 991GT3. If I had more garage space it wouldn't be going anywhere! When buying the car from a PHers father in 2005 I gave the PHer first shout on it when I come to sell, I intend standing by this agreement even if it is a bit later than the PHer was expecting at the time.
Gents. A good E39 M5 is something very very special....
Oh, E32 735iSE gangster specs are also a bit good. Ran a 1992 K reg from sep 94 to Jan 2002, Granite silver, dechromed with grey leather interior.

Still want that GT3 Daz?
People may at this stage like to go on to the next post rather than listen to the confused witterings of an excited idiot.
I've gone from being very anti PDK (almost as much as cmoose), to having concerns that a butchered PDK boxed "manual" 7 speed version will end up like the E60 M5 manual in the US. Crap, A bodge. The car has been designed to run PDK.
Sept 2012 and I'm away on Megahoon in Italy. A good mate was on the trip in a very well set up M3CSL. Which I "piloted" for 20 miles through a private test facility that had an appearance similar to the Abruzzo national park mountains in central Italy.... Having previously driven my brother's E60 M5 for 4k miles, I had no problem using SMG in the CSL, especially on a charge. Staggeringly good fun. When I got out of the CSL, I wanted one and then I thought, imagine the 991GT3, similar weight, an extra 90 BHP, PCCB, PDK which works both on a charge AND in auto mode in traffic. Tbh as a road car for Hooning around Europe it sounds perfect. I know it's not a Mezger and it's not a manual but so what, I'm sure it'll drive superbly. I've already had a Mezger engine let go, so I don't hold them out as having the indestructability or hold them in such hallowed reverence as some people appear to. I'm keeping the 996TT with it's 4WD, manual, road suspension, steel brakes, 4 seats, sunroof and going to also have a contrasting 991GT3 with 2WD, PDK, track/road switchable suspension, PCCB, 2 seats, no sunroof etc, less sound proofing and noiser exhaust. I can't wait to get my grubby mits on it.
If I don't get on with it I can always go searching for a 997GT3mk2 or a more torquey 991turbo when they come out.

Stayed there a few years ago on the way out to a Swiss/Austrian/Italian Eurohoon trip. I had the bedroom with the picture of the yellow porsche on the wall. There are a number of high end car service centres operating in the complex including Lamborghini and Ferraris.
Er... this one:
