5513 Submariner and The M\\\

Got my 99 M3 back from my BMW Mechanic repairing a few odds and ends....waiting on a new ABS module from Germany and then back it goes in to have that replaced ($1900). So, enjoying running to FedEx to make copies in it wearing my Mark V Maxidial 5513 that I intend to use as a stopgap until some of these tightwad collectors decide to sell a pristine Mark 1 Maxidial 5513....

Not often you get to see a Mk V and M3 together. Great examples of both. Good luck in your search. Both Mk I's and III's can be difficult to find.

How comes that the US version has 240 HP and the European 286 HP . . . ?

A lot of difference if you ask me . . .

I would have to get into politics to answer that question which is forbidden on the forum

Nice!
I'm currently gearing up for a 5513, and my hands-down all-time favorite car is the 1988 M5.

Hats off.

Great combo. I used to have a pristine 1997 e36 when I lived in San Diego. Currently rocking a 14060M but searching for a 5513.
