Jamie - I did drive the S60R. It is a very nice package. The highlights are definitely the suspension and the power. I really liked the 6 speed tranny as well - it is very precise with short throws. The steering was a bit light and the braking feel needs to be better, IMO. Overall a very nice car. It is not in the same league as an M5 though. In fact, I doubt there is a sedan out there that is (some people will say the E55 is, but BMW is just a better overall package).

Hi Pong - we got the PPI today and there are some minor issues. I will need to get the complete list with estimated repair costs tomorrow and then get together wth the seller to see where we are at. It looks promising though.
