Often called the best BMW ever made. An April 2000 Carbon Black BMW M5. If you don’t know about this car, Motor Trend called it “the greatest super-sedan of all time.” Edmunds described it as having “all the best a car can offer,” and said “there isn’t a four-door car on earth that can touch it.” I have owned it for about two years and have treated as if I would keep it forever. I’m selling it because I want to buy a truck to fish and kayak with. (I couldn’t ever bring myself to put a roof rack on the top of this beast.) I have replaced everything that needed it, and many things that didn’t. Please see below for a detailed list, but I put in a brand new clutch, rotors, brakes, front upper control arms, front bumper, and Z3M short shifter, and I repainted the front hood . My Buy-It-Now price takes this and the Dinan upgrades into account. You could buy one for 15,000, but then you’ll likely have to put in a clutch, brakes, and all the other things that the previous owner put off. With this, you won’t have to do a thing. The clutch feels amazing and the brakes are spectacular. Famous for being the ultimate "wolf in sheep's clothing,” a 1999-2001 M5 is a highly sought after car. It is extremely fast, but still very drivable and comfortable. This V-8 will go for more than 200,000 miles, I have no doubt. I wouldn’t have spent the money on the brakes, rotors, hood, bumper, etc if I were not completely confident in the engine. Here are a few things that I did in October. All the following have less than 2000 miles on them: • New OEM clutch from Bavarian Auto • Refinished flywheel • New Front upper control arms from Bavarian Auto • New OEM rotors from Bavarian Auto • New Padgen Red Brake pads from Bavarian Auto • Brand-new OEM front bumper installed a few months ago at Northwest Arkansas BMW. Wanted to freshen it up. • New Tires: German Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires--at least 90% wear remaining. These are widely accepted as some of the best tires available for this car. They feel amazing. • Side, front, and curtain airbag restraint system (extremely safe) I just installed a Z3M short shifter. This shortened the shift pulls a lot and reduced free play a lot in the shifter. It was just installed, so it is a bit tight still but will wear in a bit with time. However, if you don’t like the short shifter, it is very easy to take back to stock. Don’t spend 35,000 on a new so-called “sports” car. This will absolutely outperform them for a fraction of the price. It will out-accelerate, out-brake, and out-corner almost any car you come across. This is truly a super car hiding in 5-series body. And unless you know what you’re looking at, you would never guess what is lurking under its beautiful hood. Please listen to my video to hear how tight and powerful the engine is in my video. It runs like a dream. No Vanos noise. No timing chain chatter. It will still pull very hard all the way in 5th gear, yet I always get 25 miles to the gallon on the highway. Not bad for a massive 400+ horsepower car. I bought this car about two years ago and have enjoyed it immensely. It spent most of its life in California, and it has no signs of rust. I never drive it in the rain, and it is always garaged. It has a clean title. There is some wear on the leather, which I’ve tried to document. I could have re-dyed it, but in my opinion that is a little dishonest. If I were keeping it, the wear would not bother me. When I’m in the car, I’m sitting on it. :) The rear bumper is fading a bit. Again, it didn’t bother me enough to have it painted. There is also some road rash on the wheels. Again, nothing major and this didn’t bother me enough to buy new wheels. However, you can find the original wheels for about $900. I want to be very honest and forthcoming about any imperfections. Please don’t hesitate to ask if you have any questions. Please let me know if you have any questions, and happy bidding!
Also, here are some specifications: • Dinan S2 Software, Dinan Exhaust, 155-mph speed limiter removed by Dinan • 400+ horsepower, 5.0-liter all-aluminum DOHC V-8 395 pound-feet of torque, 11.0:1 compression ratio, 7000-rpm redline, six-speed manual gearbox, and 18-inch wheels • 0-60 mph in 4.7 seconds, quarter mile in 13.2 seconds at 107.4 mph • Top speed approximately 180 mph; no limiter • "Sport" button that, when activated, livens up the rate of throttle tip-in for seriously quick response • eight separate throttle butterflies that are controlled electronically upgraded cooling system • semi-dry-sump, g-sensitive lubrication system • free-flowing DINAN-upgraded dual exhaust system • six-speed gearbox (matched with 3.15:1 rear axle gearing) • unique front fascia with black cross-hatched grille work, round fog lamps, and headlight washer nozzles • Park Distance Control beeping warning system • M5-specific ultra-supportive bucket seats • a programmable interior ventilation system to cool the cabin when you're away • computerized navigation system—works perfectly • Amazing M-Audio sound system—AM/FM/cassette radio, 6-disc changer, factory-installed dual subwoofers (This is the best factory sound system I have ever heard, including a brand new Infinity and brand new upgraded Jeep system I’ve heard. It is spectacular.) • onboard tire-pressure monitoring • Dynamic Stability (traction) Control • 16-way heated power seats • Sunroof with tilt function • Angel eyes/Halo headlights • Fold-down rear seats and huge 11.1 cubic foot trunk • RARE black and caramel interior • Alcantara suede headliner in perfect condition (These sell for $1000+ used!) • Tilting passenger side-view mirror for parking assist • Auto-dimming mirrors • Factory-disabled rear airbags (if you have a child seat or young child in the back). Can be turned on. |

BWM 135i with M3 V8 engine swap combines two things we miss the most
Thu, Apr 16 2015If you've ever listened to the Autoblog Podcast, you've doubtlessly heard my views on the BMW 1 Series M Coupe. I don't much care for it. That's not to say it's bad, so much as it just isn't what an M car should be. Steven Ewing, Seyth Miersma and a number of other Autoblog staffers think I'm crazy (It's true, he is crazy –Ed.), but whatever. My position on the 1M would be dramatically different, however, had it been fitted from the factory with the truly fantastic 4.0-liter V8 from the E92 M3 (the last great M car, in this writer's humble opinion). Matt Farah of Drive took to the wheel of a 135i that's been completely reworked by Performance Technic and is owned by Marco Svizzero. The car required a salvageable E92 and what we imagine is an incalculable amount of wrench time, with the result being, as Farah says, "possibly the best BMW you could build at any price." Oh, and it sounds absolutely delicious. Check out the car in action.
BMW reveals new X5 Security Plus in Moscow
Thu, 21 Aug 2014A major player in the Russian market, BMW is heading to the Moscow Motor Show this month with a slew of local debuts... most of which we've already seen. But among all the new models making the trek from Bavaria to Moscow will be the new X5 Security Plus.
In a new-model launch that will surprise exactly no one, BMW's latest armored vehicle upgrades the X5 with enhanced protection for oligarchs against Chechen rebels, AK47-touting gangsters and missiles randomly falling on Crimean highways. Now meeting the VR6 standard of ballistic protection, the new X5 Security Plus incorporates reinforced bodywork, seats and joints, along with bulletproof glass.
Of course all that reinforcement (not to mention the jars of beluga caviar and bottles of Stoli in the glovebox) will come with a weight penalty, but the 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 ought to do the trick, driving 450 horsepower through BMW's xDrive all-wheel-drive system to get the vehicle's occupants out of a war zone in a hurry.
BMW begins restoring Elvis Presley's 507 [w/video]
Thu, 24 Jul 2014Imagine the King of Rock n' Roll driving a car and you'll likely picture a pink Cadillac or a yellow De Tomaso shot full of holes. But Elvis also owned a 1957 BMW 507 roadster, and now that roadster is returning home to BMW headquarters.
The 507 was a rare bird, of which only 254 examples were ever made. They were sold mostly to celebrities and royalty, but Elvis Presley was a GI when he bought it while stationed in Germany. The example that he bought had been displayed at the Frankfurt Motor Show, used as a press car and raced by Hans Stuck (which is how Elvis came to see it in the first place), so when he took delivery of it second-hand, the dealership had a new engine installed. It was originally white, but legend has it that Elvis got tired of women writing their phone numbers on the side of it in lipstick that he had it repainted in red.
Stories differ on what exactly happened to it next, with some saying that he returned it once the lease was up and other saying that the army shipped it back to him in the States after his tour was over. But what we do know is that the car sat for many years, neglected but sheltered from the elements. Now it's heading to the the BMW Museum in Munich, where it will be on display until August 10, after which the BMW Group Classic department will undertake a comprehensive restoration of the star-studded roadster that's expected to take two years of work.
