E60 M5, is it worth it?
Hey everyone, was looking to have a discussion on an E60 M5 I am contemplating buying for a hold/flip. Guy will do $6k no less, 186K miles. He has paperwork for the SMG hydraulic unit + rod bearings being done. Car has abs/brake light for rear shock absorber (I know that is a $1500 fix). He gave me the car for the night, am going to get a ppi tomorrow. It is an 07 E60 M5.

It's going to be expensive to maintain if it's gonna be your daily driver and/or you're not mechanically inclined. Good move getting the PPI, as long as the mechanic you're using knows BMWs. Let us know what he says.

Good move! Sorry for your disappointment, but there will be others. Consider a "more practical" 550.
