huh? you can get a C5 Z06 for under 25k all day.

i know you said under 3500lbs...but e39 M5. although like the m3 pretty expensive if you go to the dealer, but the M/S62 is a pretty reliable engine and if you get a fairly low mileage one you wont have to worry about much, only real issue with them is the cooling system needs to be checked/replaced like every 50-80k miles, but im not too sure with the M5 they may have made it a bit better. I have a 01 740il which has the M62, same setup as the m5 just detuned, with 140k on it and i have no worry's with the engine. Plus its rated at 285 hp and like 325tq and it pulls the 740 around like its nothing. cant imagine another 100hp+/50ft lb and lighter car.
