How many of us don't spend our lives dreaming of a car we'll never have the chance to drive?
Probably one in a thousand will achieve this wish, unless we are extraordinarily modest or live in a country where it is not necessary to donate all our money to the state...
Like all of us, Chris Harris had a dream, throughout his adolescence he lived in love with a 1986 BMW M5 E28, a machine that left him completely turned upside down for a lifetime.
But those times are gone… Chris managed to make this dream come true 26 years later, proving to everyone that it is possible to own the car that we always dream of. In these conditions, few people will be able to buy the much desired car, after all in 26 years many things happen. If we're not really mistaken, a copy of these, in Portugal, will cost around €15,000, which is nothing more than that...
In its golden years, this M5 was the fastest car in the segment, with its 286 horsepower and 3,453 displacement allowing a start from 0-100 km/h in 6.1 sec. and a top speed of around 250 km/h. In the video it is also possible to see Harris showing some of the pleasures and peculiarities of this handcrafted sports sedan. And you, have you had the opportunity to make your dream come true?
