I would run away from the M5.

$20,000 is rather low, even for a car with that kind of mileage.

Search the forums for South Coast Mitsu. in Cali. They are selling 06 RS IX for 26,000 with 500 cash back. 25,500 out the door. Than it's like 900 shipped from
Cali to east coast. So for 1,900 hundred more...new nine RS, two years newer than 8, and it's a nine brand new.

An M5 with that much mileage... I'd be worried. Let me tell you, the BMW runs great, but the minute it's not covered under warranty, everything is a @#@#$ to pay for. My family has gone through 2, and so has my friend. Also search a tiny bit more, the Evos can be cheaper.

I also vote for Evo but as others have said, I'd stop eating for a week and get a brand new IX RS from South Coast Mitsu in Cali.
