F10 M5 classifieds quick check ~$45k for a reasonable mileage manual version. You're right ... BW is better everywhere and comes with a warranty.

FWIW, Toyo RA1's are ooooooooollllddddd tires. I used to run those on my CMC racecar, and they were kinda old back then. Falken RT660, Bridgestone RE-71RS, Goodyear Supercar 3R are all about as close as you can get to a Hoosier with tread. Amazing stuff these days, if you can get them in your sizes.
I thought RA1 were the same compound as R888R but more of a rain tread. They are 100 treadwear. The RT660 and RE71RS are 200 treadwear tires — more of a street tire that is OK for track days whereas the RA1 is not recommended for the street. I drive in rain sometimes.
