dsocold · 12-22-2017, 10:04 AM

e39 is king. the first to implement angel eyes and COOl led taillights.... its timeless and by far one of the most funnest bmw to drive..

scoobysaurus · 12-22-2017, 11:09 AM

E60. Im a fan of bold desgins and exotic engines and the E60 is all that and more.

MParallel · 12-22-2017, 11:11 AM

E39 for me.

CP911 · 12-22-2017, 11:15 AM

E39 and E60 for different reasons.

EL Jeffe 5 · 12-22-2017, 11:25 AM

E39 then F10

PJinCA · 12-22-2017, 12:03 PM

e39 (because it's the e39 - enough said), then e60 (that v10 will always be awesome), then the e28, i would probably put the f10 last of the m5s - only because it went from performance sedan/super car to luxo cruiser with some speed. the f90 might climb that list quickly, have to wait and see (drive) it.

MSCD · 12-22-2017, 12:09 PM

E39 is my personal fav. I saw a black E34 recently and it looked mint... great car. Love the wagons too, just because their unicorns now.

I would take any or all of them!

E39 M5, the best M5 ever

Merlin_83 · 12-22-2017, 12:53 PM

Greetings,

Everyone's got their favorite, for me it has to be the E60 - for the V10 engine

I hope I can find a manual version of the E60 M5 - low miles, owned by someone like me, who's meticulous and cares well for the car.

Cheers,
Merlin

That V10!

1MOREMOD · 12-22-2017, 10:12 PM

E39 for me also. Didn't know they made an e61 touring

Calvin36 · 12-22-2017, 11:57 PM

E39. Last true M5 with ink 3 pedal option available. Big boys club.

kjoseph270 · 12-23-2017, 10:39 AM

E28....but I'm biased.

M3 Number 86 · 12-23-2017, 12:50 PM

E39 is a classic and still looks like a beast today. That being said the s85 engine is the best sounding BMW ever.

Chappers 71 · 12-23-2017, 01:00 PM

E34 3.6 for me, I did drive a e39 for a few days but for me the e34 was better.

SunnyD · 12-23-2017, 10:53 PM

E39 for looks, e60 for the powertrain

MalcForrest · 12-24-2017, 04:16 AM

For me it's always been the E34 M5 as a favourite. Quad lights at the front and a throaty sounding I6.. mmm
