yes. i want a decent V8 before I die or fuel becomes too daft and a big cruiser like this would be lovely.
When you see what 5k gets you in a skyline its easy to get your head turned

I am an 'auto man' so wouldn't care!
First time I ever drove an automatic I got caught in traffic and realised how much easier, and more comfortable, it was to not have to spend half of every journey at the biting point. Not bought a manual since.

If I had a 5k budget for a Bimmer on eBay...

If I had a 5k budget for something else
might be worth a peek.

Less power than the 540 and about the same fuel costs, I'd go for the 540 all of the time
