comfortablywacky · 20th October 2005, 23:35

Chauffer driven !!! Dosen't the owner know that is a M5 !!!

k_ajay · 20th October 2005, 23:46

I know... Tell me about it.... I got put off when I saw a chauffer.... I mean, you know....

nitrous · 20th October 2005, 23:53

i dont think M5s exist in chennai. The picture u've got must be a regular 5 series. U might have mistaken a 5 series for an M5.
Did u see the badge?? It might even be a kit.

And NO...i mean NO M5 owner would let his wife or son or brother to come near its steering wheel..nevermind the chauffeur.

k_ajay · 21st October 2005, 00:05

I didn't get to see any badge, as you can see, I was on the other side, and driving... I slowed down to take the pic, and he zoomed off.... So did I... It definitely wasn't a kit.... That I can telll you for sure.... Had one good look.... Man, it looks awesome....

Mumbaiya · 21st October 2005, 00:48

Its not an M5. You can make out from the Bumber and the Rims it has. It's just a regular 5 Series

k_ajay · 21st October 2005, 00:51

Oh yea??? Sheesh... My bad... Can one if the moderators PLease change the topic then... plzzzzzz

I dont think there is any black E60 M5 in India as yet . This is a stock 5 series. Please search for the 5 serise topic and continue your discussion there

dude I see the same car in white everyday outside my gym ( talwalkars in adyar ) .... looks damn hot

agspins · 22nd October 2006, 22:08

Black one looks real good ...earlier i posted some pics of silver 530d spotted in dehradun but was not as catchy as black.

my dad owns a 530d , well it is sportier than a E220CDI but it lacks of quality espacially the interior.Before we had a E220CDI (actual model) and that car was slower more confortable but much more well built.Materials used for the interior is far better than the 5 series escially the dashboard.On the 530d plastics are hard not on the E class much softer.BMW is too much focused on exterior , chassis, engine,transmission than on quality of the cabin.By example you can choose all models you want even the M5 ,every 5 series will get the top of the dashboard black and the wheelsteering too.With the E class you won't get that.When you choice interior in Beige color you will get the all interior in beige , the top of the dash and steeringwheel as well.Both cars are hitech but the BMW has more tech why? because of its Idrive and its headup display.The 530d has got a 3liters engine 6 inline, 211 hp or 218 hp (for blegium ) and 231 hp for the rest of the world 500Nm mated witha ZF 6 spedd automaticgearbox with Steptronic

Mugen_Power · 30th October 2006, 00:59

baddy,

Awesome car..
I liked that number plate, 19 inchers and ofcourse V10.

There's only one M5 in chennai and the owner drives it on the track.
If only he had released all of those 500 horses onto the track. MAYHEM!
