If I could have kept my President, I had dreams of swapping in a manual tranny from a 300zx which marries up pretty well with the VH45. As if it wasn't rare enough already though...

Fuckin beauty. Why did you get rid of it? Great stance.

Thanks. Honestly, I just didn't want to put in the money it deserved. President Sovereigns are already really rare, and this one had a full Junction Produce kit; it was in great shape all around, but really needed the full treatment. Airbags, new leather in the front, full stereo etc. Plus being so low, I had to repair the front bumper a couple times, as it's so far from the front wheels, it was easy to scrape.

My vision was to have a "Sport VIP" car, which is kinda my own style, hence the XD9 wheels, and the desire to have a stick shift. Maybe to even it drift it one day. But because the President is legit VIP, the only people I could talk to were VIP enthusiasts, who I just don't relate to as people. Kinda over "showing off" my cars, I just like to drive them.

But overall I just needed something that was more practical, I enjoy having cargo room hence my current wagon. And I have ties to my Skyline friends again.

Also, I couldn't have prepared for how much attention it got. More than any car I've ever owned. Too much for my liking. But it was fun for a while.

Ford 302 for a 3 series.
I'd put a 351 in that. :accepted:

Wow this is cheap for a V8 car

Spartan, would this happen to be your video and car before you sold it?


I remember seeing this, and it really inspired me to work on my vehicle back when I was driving a GS

^Matter of fact it is haha...put it up on Youtube to help the sale, and never bothered taking it down. Then I saw it had over 10k views! I guess plenty of people are interested in them!

That's cool to hear my video helped you out! You never really know the ripple effect of your actions...

I really like what you did with respect to fitting your President with rims that weren't typical of the VIP scene. Everyone runs the typical Euroline/Vienna/Kreis/full-face VIP rims and looks really cookie cutter.

Here was what my GS looked like a while back.. didn't like full faced rims so I got something more sportier

Those are some nice cars! I don't know if I would consider them good buys though.

Very nice. Woulda made for a nice photoshoot together!

I agree with the wheels, I enjoyed doing something different. I look at that photo I posted and I'm like "Man, I wish I still had that thing!"

2003 m5 e39 Carbon Black

Nice... that's the year to get too with the brushed aluminum trim... can't stand the wood trim in the earlier models

Do want

25k? Not doubting its worth it, but have the e39s climbed in price lately?

Illogical buy of the day! Just please change the colours!

It's a good price considering it's the last year and low kms.

It seems like it, Pre-Owned E39 M5 for sale

2003 M5's seem to be surpassing the values of 2006 E60 M5's or soon will

can someone buy my truck so i can buy that black dinan m5?

:sweetjesus: :megusta:

i love that interior color combo. my old 03 a-spec TL was the same way, black leather with the blue inserts and the brushed pieces on the doors.

Edit: HOLY CRAP! http://enthusiastauto.com/qsearch/?i...1#.VFvo9FPF_vg

For that price.. i would just get a 930 or 960 then RWB that hoe.

@richardmozis, check your email.

Enthusiast auto is not a valid representation of the market. They cater to people on the east coast who cant find decent cars in the rust belt so they just buy cars on craigslist or the forums then sell them for 10k more than they were listed. They are a glorified craigslist car flipper with a big budget and a store front. It basically charges a 10k premium over market value for people that are too lazy, impatient, or not knowledgable enough to find a good quality BMW M car.
