do people do this to save crash damaged cars? A panel van touring with BMW Servicemobil stripes and a yellow light might be :cool: not a fan of these chopped up saloons though.. :evil:

just looked through all the pics and videos and tbh im now convinced that the M5 is cool. they done a proper job o it aswell unlike what you see when people do it to E30's every now and again.

I dont understand why you take a fully working M5 E39 and convert it into an Pickup - if you convert an 520 and then use the powerplant from an M5 it makes more sence to me. But yes its a very cool project!
