Default E60 M5, RUF (and friends) - A Pictorial
Hi folks,

My friend just got his E60 M5 in and we arranged a small meet. Turns out a bunch more E34, and E39 M5s showed up as well. I have some pics for members who also like BMWs. This first post is only on the E60 M5

Enjoy.

The M5, while a ripping fast car, looks a bit "swoopy" for my taste. Your Ruf, on the other hand, looks sensational. I'm looking forward to our trip to Morro Bay on Saturday. See you there.

I just don't like the look of the newer BMWs. The performance and the engineering however... that I love. Your RUF makes any car look pale in comparison. It is truly one beautiful car.

The new body style does nothing for me. Your old M5 was a classic Pong. I wouldn't own a new one for anything. My wife has no idea what she will do when she wants to get rid of her 740i. She also hates the new style. Well maybe that will save me money on new cars for a while

The 'new' BMW style is the pitts.... The 993 style is timeless beauty.

I don't get it, all I see is a wonderful Ruf and some commuter cars. Did I miss something?
