If you're going to get a car to keep stock, i'd definitely recommend an m5.

Check this deal out:

18,500 for a 2000 M5 with 61,600 miles, has a full warranty for 20 months/32000 miles

BLK int. w/ Lemans blue inserts. Clean Car Check and Car Fax. Car is flawless inside and out. NO ISSUES! Needs NOTHING. Car is garaged in any weather. Has every available option that could be had including GPS Navigatio homelink GDO, PDC sensors, Extended Leather, Split folding rear seats, power window shades, Power Chips software ($1000 feature), Xenons with auto-levelling and Angel Eyes. No dents, dings, scrapes, interior flawless. This is a once in a lifetime deal as I lost my job 3 weeks ago. My loss is your gain. Warrantee covers everything except wear items like brake pads, etc. $100 transfer fee and you are covered. Recently gone over 100% by Star Auto in Oak Lawm- BMW specialist. They say the car is PERFECT and needs nothing. If it did, I would get it covered under warrantee! This car came through British Columbia to the US in late 2000 so it is nearly a 2001. NEW CLUTCH and NEW Driveshaft under warrantee. You will get in and drive and enjoy what is likely the most famous and exotic of all BMWs. These cars are heavy, but run high 12 seconds 1/4 miles right off the showroom floor. The most subtle beauty you will ever see in the very nicest color combination. The extended leather sport seats do not even have wear marks or wrinkles. 6 CD DSP premium stereo. Mats, 2 sets of remotes, tool kit complete, etc. Michelin PS2 tires will need replacing, but not quite yet, Have about 1/3 tread left. The stock M5 wheels have no curb rash or peeling whatsoever. You will never see this on a 2000 except one that has been taken car of like this one. Full synthetic oil always (all 8 quarts). All fluids changed including differential, transmission, brakes, power steering, radiator flush. THIS M5 USES NO OIL AT ALL nor does it leak at all. Many M5s use excessive oil, but this one is blessed and uses not a drop! DO not wait Car will sell fast. Call today to see & drive.
