What Owners are Saying About the 2003 BMW M5

"Finally a adequate replacement for my 911"

"I have always been a BMW fan/owner. Although they are not the best in terms of reliability (mostly electrical), it'd definitely help you remove whatever burden you carry in life, the moment you start driving it. Acceleration, handling, feeling are race car experience. If you have kid and still enjoy spirit driving, nothing beat this 4 doors machine. I used to own a 911 and had to let it go after having a kid. Now I have found something which is faster which the whole family can comfortably enjoy together. Definitely worth the buy especially now pricing is at its lowest(found mine with 69K miles with rare Oxford Green, fully loaded, extremely well kept for only $18K). Don't worry about the potential high maintenance. You have saved a lot already getting it used as the guy before you had to throw out 80 larges for it."

"The best car I have ever owned"

"The 2001 BMW M5 is unlike any BMW I have ever owned. I have owned three including two BMW M3's I have driven new BMW's and this car is still exceptional."

"Best Car I have ever owned"
