Maybe I'm biased ('cause i work for a BMW place), but BMWs are the best cars
in the world!!
This is my dream car... the BMW M5. Four Door sedan for the family, but mean
when it wants to be. In a recent MotorTrend test of the *highest calibre* sports
car, the M5 obliterated the Mercedes E55, Porsche 911 Carrera, Jaguar XKR, and
the Aston Martin 600.
MSRP $69,400
