BMW M5 (2001)
for sale

Price: US $19,700.00

Description:

This is an exceptional E39 M5. It's a Southern Car since new, with a clean Carfax, and a deep service history. It's the second time I've owned it, having sold it to a good friend back in 2010. He's had some recent knee trouble, and cannot drive a stick any longer, so I was happy to buy it back from him. It's Carbon black with the two tone black and silver leather, and best of all, the aluminum trim work. Carpets, door cards, headliner, and dash /console are beautiful.
Since you're looking here, I assume you know that these are fabulous cars, one of the best BMW's ever built. You also know that the values of these cars keep rising. Some are stupidly priced--either way too much for a real shady car, or an insane number for a garage queen. This car is sensibly priced, only a little more than the iffy ones-- and you can actually drive it--not just park it and look at it. It is a joy to drive, and people still stop and ask you about it when you park it. I just returned from a 500 mile trip with my car club buddies up to the Smokies and the Dragon--and the car performed flawlessly and got well over 20 MPG even under spirited driving.
The odometer shows 107300 ish today. It's parked on my indoor showroom, and fully detailed, clayed, and polished. I use only the best products from Meguiar's Griot's, etc, and am a concours judge and winner. The paint is almost totally original, panel fitment and gaps are perfect too. It is super neat in the trunk and under the hood. It is fully sorted--no warning lights or funny issues. In the last 10 -15 k it has had new front rotors, pads, and sensors, recent control arm bushings, New Michelin Pilot Super Sports about 1500 miles ago, roadforced and fine finished on the car. BTW, the wheels look excellent, I had them refinished for him a while back, and the color is proper. I recently replaced some seeping power steering lines, leaky rear main seal, and a leaky R side valve cover gasket..It has just had a fresh oil service also, and the lights are full green. I also recently replaced the slightly worn M shifter with a new one ($163!), and it has an almost new set of BMW M mats as well. Note that the tool kit is properly full and has a Euro warning triangle as well. The interior of this car is show ready, lighter and ashtray never used, and both compartments are neat as a pin. Glass is original and in excellent shape. It has been through the PDR guy ( I see zero dings anywhere), and our best local touch up/airbrush guy has recently been around it. Also take a look at the headlight lenses, nice and clear.
Here's what you WONT find on this car--burned out pixels--the cluster was just redone. No mirror blob--if you've looked at others, you know what this is. Already taken care of. Shoddy install on a aftermarket radio? Nah, this is all original and it works properly, as do the heated seats, central locking, cruise, drink holders and all the electrics. It is obvious when you look at it and drive it that it has been well treated, mechanically and cosmetically. Oh, and have you noticed how the windshield seal fails on most of these E39's? Already replaced on his one.
It is 14 years old and I know it is not perfect. But I would challenge you to find a nicer, better kept car in this price range. It is tight, tracks like a freight train, no warning lights, and it rattle free. I have a ton of service history over the past 5 to 6 years, and would encourage you to talk to my local indie who has been under it many many times. I also have ALL the books/manuals in the proper leather pouch, as well as 3 keys with two masters, and yes, the central locking works properly from both of them.
Take a look at the other cars in this price range. Make sure you check my feedback on Ebay. It is 100%. Check my site out on the web and view my easy and transparent way of doing business. Take special note of the testimonials. I am nearly 35 years in the business, and play by the Golden Rule. I 'm just south of Atlanta, and will do my best to make your experience easy and fun. I am a BMW geek, not some flipper selling junk, and I have the title in my possession. Also, I have no dealer fees, so that will save you another $300-600 as well. If you want to own a fantastic performing and great looking car in this range, this is a great choice. Call me, and I'll give you any other details or photos you might want. Thanks for looking!
