      Stuart Appleby, the professional golfer, is quite the BMW fan. He has had several highly modified and higly publicized BMW's. He also goes by the name of apples on M5board. Well, the Australian shop Southern Rod tranformed one of his E39 M5's into a truck. Australians love this kind of stuff, seriously. The motor is the S62 V8 in modified form with a tune and full exhaust. Let's just hope it wasn't powerchip who did the tuning, as the last time Stuart Appleby dealt with Powerchip Wayne Besanko took him for a ride that cost him 100's of thousands.

        That thing is crazy.

        Professional golfer Paul Casey use to live down the street from me, he was always driving an E60 M5. Now another golfer just moved in across the street, Martin Laird. He rolls around in a new E63, his chick drives a supercharged Range Rover.

        I still threw up a little in my mouth...

        I get it, pick ups are cool, the BMW E93 M5 is cool, but together...not cool. Just me ofcourse.

        It's Stuart Appleby, he can have both. Also, people in Australia are different.

        I'm surprised no one has made one of these trucks based on an X5 yet.

        Not into it, it's like combining two things that are cool doesn't necessarily make something 2 x as cool.

        But yea Aussies are definitely into this kind of stuff.

        Something like this has a lot of potential though:
