I owned an '08 M5 -- hated that car... all sales hype.. gutless pig at anything less than about 5000 rpm's. Don't even get me started on that crap transmission and clutch set up....

For 50K -- buy a used Corvette.... some good tires - some good brake pads - drive the wheels off of it.

50K isn't going to get you much of a "track car" - if you start out at 10/15K for a body... add a motor capable of going to the track - and the tranny - now suspension - wheels - tires - brakes - proper seats - harness - gauges... and forget about LABOR to put it all together.

There's my 1 cent worth. LOL
