LOL i know , last time I did the same with the Crunch GP2500D amp and premier Sub. I bought it for 500$ including box and sold it for 750$. The guys thought the amp was 2500x1 ohm. Eventually he found out giving me a call saying that the amp is not working i said what are u talking about what amp. Because there was no proof of sale . But it still wasnt a bad deal i threw in an extra Pioneer 307D 12" .

I was lucky this time too. LOL . People have ripped me off so many times so i said to myself , this is payback time. LOL

Another thing was they weren't too loud for me , but what MR2NR recommended is good , subs that could take enough power so in the future i only have to upgrade my amp. I am going to improve the electrical of the car .

And i was also thinking of buying this amp Memphis 16-MC1.2500 .
you are going to find the same problem with space unless you are just going to do a single 12 and as Yuli mentioned before because it is a trunk car you wont really notice a difference.

looking at pics online a M5 trunk is very similar to the trunk of my Epica.

I just grabbed these off the net, as I have a big box in my trunk:

BMW 07 M5


04 Epica


So I would say that the box wasnt too big, rather it was the size it needed to be for SPL, because the Dual Kicker L7 box takes up about 75% of my trunk.

Its long in length but the trunk is not wide , so my box goes all the way to the end. I cant even open the battery compartment on the side . lol .

your best bet then to save trunk space would be a single 12 maybe even a 15, otherwise you will end up with an undersized box which will make the bass sound like *****.

if I didnt need some of my trunk I would of gone with a custom box but the Kicker prefab is big enough and sounds good.

Lemme know what you guys have because car audio is addictive and if i dont have system for time i start to lose it lol

Thanks
That was you?!?!?

Haha, I was thinking emailing "the guy" about the amp since I was wondering if it would be parted out ...

Congrats on the sale.
