Ahhhhhh…BMW’s E28 M5 has often been noted for its excellence, and this one’s for sale over at Roadfly for $17,500. I’d buy it if parking spaces in downtown Manhattan didn’t cost $450+/month.

Nice car, but I’m with you on the 450 /month, its just not worth it.
Nice M5. A previous boss had one, but alas I never got to drive it. It’s a good thing my car budget is practically zero these days… I couldn’t decide between a mint E28 or a good E39. Decisions…
$450 a month for parking? Dang, I’m glad I’m out in the boonies. I’d offer you a place to park it for free, but (a) I haven’t finished building the garage yet, and (b) I’m some 1300 miles from NY.
Parking is a b*tch in NYC, there are several places around central park on both the UWS and UES that run $1k a month. But at this point in my life I would not trade living here for anywhere else.
Ahh, the era of handbuilt BMW’s.
If you buy a car to prove something then you don’t deserve to be driving at all.
Agreed with Cartorialist.
The S38 in that (and the E34) M5 is a fabulous motor and those cars are extremely under-appreciated compared to the E34 and E39 M5’s. It’s a much more raw M5 than the E39 and E60 M5, but in my opinion it’s worth every penny that the seller is asking.
Well it IS possible to park in New Jersey somewhere close to a subway line where you can catch a train over to the car and park a lot cheaper, maybe even frEEE, but definitely cheaper.
Need to get Alex one of these shirts…
