              I have 2 on order. Some days I feel like driving silver, the other days powder pink.

                  It's amazing what a few well placed styling changes can do to the five series. Personally I think the 5-series with the 545i rims doesnt look bad at all, but the M5 just looks like it will eat your children.

                  0-60 in under 5 seconds I believe and supposedly 7 speed SMG, a bit much, but I would just get a manual for a beast like this.

                  Take Luck!

                      Answer me this...

                      I have a friend that has 2 BMW's on order. One a 2005 model and the other a 2006. He tells me there can be so much demand for certain bmw's that he can sell the option of buying the car to someone else for thousands!

                      I think he had to put down something like $500 on each car to order them. My question is this... Can he back out of the vehicle and get his downpayment back if he doesn't want the car? Is this a sound business practice?

                          I don't like the new 5 series at all, too round.

                          As far as the previous (current) gen, I much preferred driving the M3 to the M5. More nimble, more driving feel, etc.

                              Depends what years. I've driven a 93 m3 and a 91 m5.
                              I would take the m5 any day.
                              m3 is more in my price range so I'd be happy with that ;)

                                          he should definitely get his money back if he doesn't want the car. i have a small deposit that i would of course expect to get back. the way i have things worked, it is all subject to test drive. so if i drive and don't like it, it simply goes to the next guy down the list. the car will last all of 30 seconds on the open market when they first start arriving.

                                              i agree about the current generation. i'm not sure what i think about the looks of the new M5. i really need to see one in person...

                                                              The front looks nice...the back, however, looks like a Honda Accord. BMW is my favorite car manufacturer, and imo, the new cars are losing the curves and the appeal that attracted me to them in the first place. The E46 M's are the pinnacle of automotive perfection, in my book.

                                                                                                                                                                              I have a friend that has 2 BMW's on order. One a 2005 model and the other a 2006. He tells me there can be so much demand for certain bmw's that he can sell the option of buying the car to someone else for thousands!

                                                                                                                                                                              I think he had to put down something like $500 on each car to order them. My question is this... Can he back out of the vehicle and get his downpayment back if he doesn't want the car? Is this a sound business practice?

They do make large with selling the paper. If you dont get the deposit back its just a business expense. They have done this with the Tbirds, The benz convertibles, and about a 1/2 dozen PT cruisers when they fist came out .

It is in Vegas right now wiating for a new engine whcih is coking from the east coast. I am thinking about buying an M5 as well.

One a 2005 model and the other a 2006. He tells me there can be so much demand for certain bmw's that he can sell the option of buying the car to someone else for thousands!

                                                                                                                                                                                                  I think he had to put down something like $500 on each car to order them. My question is this... Can he back out of the vehicle and get his downpayment back if he doesn't want the car? Is this a sound business practice?

I think last time I had to give 10% of the price. They make a car exactly as you want it, so they shouldnt give money back. Why would anybody cancel the order, when the car is manufactured?
