My Mood: | | | Supercharged E39 M5 in town? Does anyone know of a blue M5 (lemans blue??) that has been supercharged? A few months ago,I was waiting downtown for the Metro bus and an M5 drove by that was very nice looking and sounded sweet, but different.
It had a different exhaust that was deep and had a nice rumble to it but there was a distinct supercharger sound from it as well, kinda like the Mini S whine. It took of like a rocket from the light and you could hear the whine even more. Very nice.
Exterior looked stock but it had a significant drop, some HRE or Fiske wheels and possibly a BBK
Does anyone know of this car?

I think i know what your talkin about. If its who I think it is then thats close to a 1000hp blown m5. The specs on that car are amazing, but they owner either sold or is still trying to sell the car. Well over 100k invested in the car alone.
Search the forums...i am sure you will find a thread on it

My Mood: Ride: hmmmmm | | | I know David Carr's got a Dinan Supercharged ///M5. It could be him.
Also could be Triflow's old M5. But he sold it and moved to Vegas. Who he sold it to, I don't know.

My Mood: | | | I didn't catch the plate and i've seen the 1000hp M5s that Discovery Automotive built but I think one of those cars is in Dubai and the other is on the west coast but I may be wrong. I hope I can see it again.
