2001 BMW M5 · Sedan · Driven 239,000 miles If you’re looking for a well running E39 M5 that you can drive daily without worrying about putting miles on it this is it.

Our Take:
- A Classic Performance Icon: The 2001 BMW M5 (E39) is often hailed by car enthusiasts as one of the best sports sedans ever made. Under the hood, it boasts a naturally aspirated 4.9L V8 engine, delivering 394 horsepower—a real beast of its time. Despite the high mileage, it's still a beloved model for its balance of luxury and performance.
- Manual Transmission Delight: At a time when many manufacturers were transitioning to automatic transmissions, the E39 M5 stood out with its six-speed manual gearbox. This adds an extra layer of engagement that purists crave—imagine rowing through the gears on a winding road, hearing the engine sing through its aftermarket SuperSprint x-pipe and MagnaFlow setup.
- Solid Build with Character: The mileage might scare some, but if this M5 could talk, it would tell tales of road trips to places like Mt Baker and Whistler. The seller's investment in maintenance and upgrades means this car has been cherished, not neglected. Its imperfections, like the mismatched fender, add to its character and story—a bit like a beloved classic novel with a dog-eared page or two.
- Enthusiast's Treasure Trove: Along with the vehicle, you're getting a whole collection of extra parts and accessories—from winter wheels to BMW factory roof racks. It's like receiving a time capsule of BMW history, offering a tangible connection to its past and a nod to the love and care it received. Now, finding all these parts might feel a bit like an Easter egg hunt, but that’s just part of the fun, isn’t it?
