I've always wanted a high horsepower, practical daily driver hatchback or wagon. I loved the e60 BMW M5 v10 wagon but those are very hard to come by and also it's more fun to build a car. A small number of e60 5 series wagons also came with the infamous N54 twin turbo engine so I eventually found one in good condition. After about ~12-15k in maintenance, I started the build process over the years and currently very happy with the car. I drive it everyday, use it to haul stuff, go on road trips, etc, and it's relatively problem-free with all the maintenance done before hand. Future eventual build plans include will be even bigger twin turbos (RB high flow game finishers), built engine, methanol injection, and manual transmission swap... One day!
