2001 Bmw E39 M5 Low Mileage, Excellent Condition on 2040-cars

Year:2001 Mileage:64184
Location:

Milford, Connecticut, United States

Milford, Connecticut, United States

I have have performed some small touch-up paint fixes but these are not noticeable unless looking very closely.  I have owned the M5 for slightly less than a year.  I love the car but have recently purchased another sports car, so unfortunately, the M5 has to go.   **  Carfax shows an accident around 26K miles if I remember correctly?  I bought the car with about 60K and have experienced no evidence of the accident.  My BMW mechanic sees nothing to cause him any concern also.

The engine sounds fantastic and pulls very strong.  It is a true beast.  I have the paperwork on  all of the repairs / upgrades I've performed on the car.  All work was done by a local BMW specialist.  What I have done is the following:

o  engine work required in order for the car to pass CT emissions,  work performed, car passed with no problem
o  2 Mass Air Flow Sensors just replaced
o  New Water Pump installed
o  New Fuel Filter
o  Air & Cabin Filters replaced
o  Castrol Edge Synthetic oil change
o  New right rear tail lamp installed 
o  New inner hood liner (insulation)
o  The car came with a center armrest/car phone holder.  It offered no storage.  I installed a small storage compartment (meant for the M5)

All parts are BMW OEM, no generic, no-name parts used.  I personally machine polished & waxed the car in Sep'13.  3 new OEM M5 refurbished wheels. Unmarked, like new., no curb rash or dings.  One note on the wheels - they should all be "shadow line" which is kind of a gun-metal.  I originally replaced 3 wheels in Jul'13 and I then replaced the 4th wheel this past October with a brand new non-refurb wheel.  I didn't realize until after the 4th wheel was installed that it was the regular (lighter) colored silver.  I will replace the left rear wheel with either a brand new refurb. or a new non-refurb as part of the sale.  You are welcome to the wheel that is currently on the car also.  If you do a search on refurbed BMW wheels, you'll find a few suppliers.  The quality is outstanding and there is no difference in the appearance or quality of these wheels vs. a new, never used wheel.  I used "Original Wheels" and "All Factory Wheels."

There are no error lights (check engine, etc.) at all.  Also, there is no MP3 or iPod jack, but I have a cassette adapter that plugs into your phone to allow you to play your iTunes, Pandora, or even Sirius music (subscription required.)  There is a 6 CD changer in the trunk that works sporadically, so I do not use it.  Also, the car never came with a spare (from the factory), but I purchased a mini spare from a BMW parts specialists on-line.  I have never used it and I can't be 100% sure it will fit, even though it was purchased as fitting an '01 M5.  There is a  little display pixelation which is common in the E39.  It's not an issue imo, but on one of the mileage numbers, it is noticeable at times (not for all numbers.)

Note:  I have the blue part of the BMW roundels colored in red.  These are simply vinyl inserts that you or I can peel off.  There was no glue used in the process and the original roundel is underneath.  If you're  looking for an extremely clean E39 M5, I'm confident you would be very happy with this one.  Thanks

BMW wants to expand DriveNow carsharing program to 25 new cities

Wed, Mar 12 2014

Daimler's Car2go car-sharing service just announced that it will debut in Rome, its 26th global city. Now, BMW says it wants to expand its own carsharing program to, wait for it, 25 more cities. Coincidence? We think not. BMW is looking to bring its DriveNow carsharing program, with its Mini Coopers and 1 Series, to as many as 15 new cities in Europe as well as 10 in the US, Bloomberg News says, citing comments BMW executive Peter Schwarzenbauer made at the Geneva Motor Show last week. The service is now operational in Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne, Munich, Dusseldorf and San Francisco and serves about a quarter-million people. Of course, it's that last city, where DriveNow started operations in August 2012, that's been somewhat problematic. San Francisco has tough guidelines when it comes to where the cars can be parked, with so few public parking areas to choose from. DriveNow charges $39 for membership in San Francisco, then $12 for the first half hour of driving and 32 cents for each additional minute. DriveNow competes directly against Car2go, which charges around $25 to become a member and then 41 cents a minute to rent a Smart ForTwo.

BMW unleashes new M4 racer on DTM

Mon, 03 Mar 2014

We may not get to enjoy the fruits of it all, but we're in the midst of a golden age in touring car racing around the world. In Northern Europe, rival local series have amalgamated into the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship. In the UK, the British Touring Car Championship is enjoying the largest and most diverse grid in its long history. In Australia, the V8 Supercars series has grown from a Holden vs. Ford battle to include challengers from Mercedes, Nissan and Volvo. And in Germany, the DTM championship has managed to lure BMW back onto the grid to open up the battle between Mercedes and Audi. All good things, in short.
Since returning to the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters in 2012, BMW has won the drivers' title once and the constructors' title twice, proving the Bavarian manufacturer to be not only a suitable challenger to the two-horse race between its star- and ring-emblazoned rivals, but the dominant force in German tin-top racing. Now BMW is set to enter its third season since returning to the DTM, and this is the car with which it intends to do so.
Replacing the M3 DTM that has impressively won half of the DTM races it has contested over the past two years, BMW's latest racing car is made in the mold of the new M4 coupe. Only it's even meaner. While the production version has switched to a turbo six, the DTM version still uses a V8: a 4.0-liter unit with four-valve cylinder heads, mandatory air restrictors and a Bosch ECU to channel 480 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque to the rear set of Hankook racing slicks through a six-speed sequential gearbox. The lightweight chassis is rounded out with competition-level aerodynamics and all the mandatory safety equipment.

BMW M4 Convertible poised for Goodwood unveil

Sat, 22 Mar 2014

It shouldn't be a shock that BMW is working on a convertible version of the M4. Not only have we caught it testing twice, but this is an automaker that seems willing to build a vehicle for nearly every buyer's needs. Evo claims that the high-performance droptop is going to debut at this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed in England from June 26-29.
Judging from the spy shots we've seen, the M4 Convertible will consist of a retractable hard top like the 4 Series cabrio. Other than the roof, there aren't expected to be many changes from the coupe. The engine will be the same turbocharged, 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder engine, but the added weight of the roof and its mechanism may take a small bite out of performance.
We spoke to BMW USA about the rumor and were told that it has no comment at this time. After the M4 Convertible, Evo claims that BMW is working on a M4 Gran Coupe. How that would be all that different from an M3, isn't exactly clear.
