Sorry, they're huge.

they look horrible imo...

Bet the owner of the Mazzer would not have left it there if he/she had known there would be a cherry picker working around it!!

That video needs taking off the internet and the two drivers would probably profit from a castration (they're waay beyond a driving ban)

This is the worst example of utterly reckless and dangerous driving I have ever seen.

Think it's the real deal.
This is a write up by some guy who bought one. You can see in the magazine pic that there's a shot of the back of the car showing the same two exhausts.

If its a real E55 its damn ugly. My Stepmothers / Fathers old E240 V6 Avantgarde looks better then that. http://img317.imageshack.us/img317/5311/imgp17767rd.jpg http://img317.imageshack.us/img317/4270/imgp17731bu.jpg

not sure it's a real E55 because it's an old model, but I did see a 05 E55 at lunch, have the pic on my phone and I'm trying to get it to the computer now!

AJ! · 22-08-2006 2:30pm

BMW M5

BMW M6

HungryJoey · 22-08-2006 2:38pm

Hawt pictures AJ! You're always spotting them. You must have some archive of them now at this stage

You could be seeing a Merc SLR there pretty soon...

Gatster · 22-08-2006 7:14pm

It's probably a real E55 as it's quite hard to get exhaust tips for the E-Class exhaust to attain the look. Either that or the owner has a Remus/Aftermarket exhaust or an AMG one of Ebay...

EDIT
Forgot this, saw the black M6 last Friday on Baggot St, a new Quattroporte (UK reg) on Leeson st end of Waterloo Rd, and a red 360 at the other end, all within about 3 minutes of each other

qz · 22-08-2006 8:19pm

M3
M5
M6 x 2

so here's the E55 I saw today...

I'd love to see an SLR around sandyford AJ... when is he getting it in do you know?

Today, I saw an M3 (UK reg, gun metal grey),
an M5 (UK reg, silverstone)
an M6 (black, Irish)
another M6 (black, Irish, across the road form where the first M6 passed me.)

smash · 22-08-2006 9:40pm

Sure it was't the same M6?

qz · 22-08-2006 9:46pm

Knew someone would ask

I'm 100% positive. The reg on the first one was 06-D-7000, the second was a big mess of random numbers. I'm sure.

smash · 22-08-2006 9:59pm

shame you didn't have a cam... very rare car. I've seen 1 dark red one.

I've seen about 4 sapphire blacks at this stage, and two interlagos blues.

smash · 22-08-2006 10:11pm

haha, I've only seen the one, seen it 3 times though in sandyford ind est.

Do-more · 23-08-2006 7:33am

They had an used M6 for sale in Capital Cars BMW in Tullamore when I was there a few weeks back, if you dressed up nice (and hid your Micra round the corner) they might (!) give you a test drive.;)
