25k: 2006 BMW M5 V10-SMG

BMW M division's first bruiser sedan was the 1988 BMW M5; they had previously dabbled in the M1 supercar and 4-cylinder powered E30 M3 but it was the E28 M5 that set the standard for a fast M-sedan.  Multiple generations later that formula had outgrown its inline-6 roots and by the E60 generation the M5 was powered by an F1 inspired V10 with a screaming high 8250 rpm redline.  Today these M5s are out of factory warranty and can be purchased for less than a new 128i Coupe.  This 2006 BMW M5 is for sale in Sebastopol, CA with an asking price of $25,000 via craigslist.  Thanks to tip from DT reader Kaibeezy!

25k: 1997 Porsche 911 993 6spd

The Porsche 993 is the last generation of aircooled Porsche 911s and represents the high note for 911 production.  The next generation of 911 (the 996) was softer, quieter and generally sissified in every manner and super unreliable to boot!  Thirty years of constant development on the basic aircooled flat 6 and taming the tail happy chassis resulted in a fantastic car that today is priced considerably more than the next generation of 911.  This 1997 Porsche 911 6 spd is for sale in Studio City, CA for $26k asking via craigslist .
