2000 BMW M5

On January 1st, 2000, folks cautiously opened their front doors and found that society hadn't collapsed, the mortgage was still in force and life continued.  Except for people in the automotive industry, because they were insane.  Apparently cars from the 1990s were great, reliable, & fun...but just not fast enough.  The years of horsepower wars not seen since the late 1960s were upon us...which is great for used car buyers over a decade later.  Find this 2000 BMW M5 offered for $16,500 in Orange County, CA.

1999 GMC Suburban SLT 4X4

In the late 20th century if you had a medium sized family (2 kids, wife, mistress) and didn't want the stigma of a minivan, the choice was easy: you got a Suburban Assault Vehicle.  Of the plus sized SUVs that spewed noxious fumes around suburbia there was one that stood out as the choicest cut of car-meat -- GM's Suburban, available as a GMC or a Chevrolet for reasons beyond my understanding.  Find this 1999 GMC Suburban SLT 4X4 offered for $2,500 in St. Paul, MN via craigslist.
