Exactly. There are multiple e39 M5s on my Craigslist right now (yes, it’s in my saved searches) for less than this. Sure, they have more miles, and likely are hiding some issues, but this car isn’t perfect either. For 21k, I’d want the 540i that is Mecum worthy. 

I recently sold my 2002 BMW 540i Sport (Not M-Sport) and boy was it a gateway drug. Eventually I bought my 2002 M5, which I still own, and have since sold my 540i after almost 300K on it.

Jason, the 80s promised us that the future would be filled with vehicles like these. Manufacturers are just fulfilling the prophesy.

Aaaaaaand the countdown to 2045 has begun 

So wait, Subaru becomes more and more humdrum by the year and Toyota starts making the fun cars?

GTX - Nvidia branding nomenclature for their gaming cards

Did you check with Torch on this? IIRC, the GTX designation in place of GLI for the sportier Jetta in certain markets.

Damn. It’s a car I would have, almost, maybe considered, possibly buying.

This has been parked at the Petersen for a while now, you guys.

Practically dribbled.

All three were CLOSE to production.

I mean, I’d argue the Copperhead was the best car Chrysler never made. Or the ME412.

Designed and built by Foose Design. Later built in 2007 16 years after Foose designed that, he built the Hemisfear. A mid-engined, 392 Hemi powered hot rod.

It could have been an earlier concept for the ill faded Howler that almost happened
