Up for sale is a beautifully maintained 2000 BMW M5. I bought this car in 2010 with approximately 52,000 miles on the odometer and over the approximately four years I have owned it, I put roughly only 21,000 miles on it. I have had no mechanical issues with this car whatsoever. All oil changes have been performed on schedule, and the car was serviced at BMW of Myrtle Beach about one week ago. I have all maintenance records for the car, and most of the records that were given to me by the prior owner. The vehicle has never been in an accident and has a totally clean and certified carfax.

The prior owner took extremely good care of the car, and the car has been maintained at BMW dealers it’s entire life. The prior owner was a lead engineer for Roush racing, so the car was given to me in meticulous mechanical condition and I have done my best to keep it that way the entire time I have owned it. Just recently (within 3 or 4 months) I have had a brand new set of BF Goodrich KDW2’s installed on the car at the same time I had the rims completely re-finished. Unfortunately, I have been quite busy with work, and since this is not my daily driver I believe I have probably put less than 1,000 miles on the tires.

On the exterior, this car has almost perfect - an A or A+ for it’s age. The only imperfections I can find with the exterior are:

1.) One chip on the deck lid - I received the car this way. It has been touched up.
2.) A few slight imperfections on the hood from normal road wear. I tried to picture this, but it is so slight it barely even shows.
3.) The “shadow” (black) trim below the drivers side window has some minor paint issues. It is very slight in person, I tried to picture this as well. It would be a very simple re-paint. Locally I was quoted $75.

On the interior, other than normal light wear that you see in the pictures, there are no issues found. If you are as picky as I am, the “window lock” button is missing on the drivers side door. It could be replaced for only a few dollars, and if the buyer wants, I would be glad to have this done. The car has beautiful brushed aluminum trim with no imperfections.

Upgrades - performance wise, this car is nearly stock with the exception of a full Magnaflow exhaust system and a BMW ///M short shifter. The Magnaflow exhaust is clean and sounds great - I always get compliments on it and it sounds great around town with the windows down. The short shifter is genuine BMW ///M part professionally installed and makes the throw short and precise. In the interior, I have professionally replaced the original wood trim with a genuine BMW ///M brushed aluminum interior trim, I have added a custom BMW ///M stitched alcantara suede shift boot, a genuine chrome and illuminated BMW ///M shift knob, and the navigation screen has been upgraded to a 2003 model.

On the exterior, the car is stock - no add on body parts. You will notice the shadow trim, BMW shadow grill, the brake ducts option and that the headlights have been upgraded to the coveted OEM Hella Angel Eye xenon lights found on the 2003 Model. I have had the rims and brake calipers re-finished and re-painted. I have also replaced both xenon bulbs within the past year - you should be good for years to come.

Engine compartment is extremely clean with no oil leakage whatsoever - you could eat off the engine. Additionally, air filters and cabin air filter have both been replaced within the past few months and oil was changed recently as well. The battery was also replaced within the past 2 years, and I have kept a car on a battery tender religiously while it has sat in my garage - the car has always been garaged.

Mechanically, this car is extremely reliable - I have never had any issues. This is what the E39 M5 is known for. The car has very low mileage - there are many E39 M5’s on the market that are younger and have nearly twice the mileage.

I believe I covered everything - I have always loved this car growing up so when I got it I have taken care of it and I had the money to take care of it properly. Ideally, I hope that the next owner keeps it the same way - as this is a beautiful car that is still fast, exciting and gets attention everywhere. The pure E39 M5 - also known as “The Beast” among ///M enthusiasts, still widely considered the best M5 ever made. It will put a smile on your face every time - this car is an absolute rocket ship.

If you have any questions, or would like to see any further pictures please don’t hesitate to be in touch - I will try to take them for you. I have about 70 pictures of the car located here for download.

Even 'Ring taxi drivers need to respect the Green Hell

Wed, 06 Aug 2014

The Nürburgring Nordschleife has the reputation as one of the most difficult tracks in the world to master - deservedly so. With 14 miles of roadway and about 160 corners over a massive amount of elevation change, the amount of grip can change from turn to turn. As the driver of the famous BMW Ring Taxi learned this weekend after a shunt into the barricades, the 'Ring can bite unsuspecting pros just as easily as amateurs.
The video of the incident below shows the M5 oversteering right into the wall as a phalanx of Porsche models arrive behind it. According to Bridge to Gantry, a website that specializes in news about the 'Ring, the taxi's passengers were picked up by another Ring Taxi and driven off with a fantastic story to tell their friends back home. "The accident happened at low speed, there were two passengers in the car, but no one had at any injuries," said BMW spokesperson Cypselus von Frankenberg to Autoblog via email.
The crash also closed track for over an hour to clean up and to haul the stricken BMW away. When a driver making a living from driving lap after lap at the Nordschleife has a crash even as seemingly minor as this one, it just goes to show why the course has the nickname 'The Green Hell.'

Next BMW 4 Series convertible may ditch folding hardtop

Sat, Aug 8 2015

In 2007 the E93 BMW 3 Series convertible switched from a fabric roof to a folding hardtop, but reports out of Germany and BMW say that the next-generation 4 Series convertible will go back to a fabric roof. AutoBild disclosed that nugget last month, now BMW Blog says a BMW source told their sister German publication BimmerToday that it's official and "a decision has already been made." The official car of pro tennis clubs around the world, the droptop 4 Series isn't due in dealers until 2020 or 2021 so one would think there remains some leeway about the top. However, teams of designers are working on the new car right now, so it's entirely possible that a design course is fixed. From the time that the model made the switch, fabric roofs have got so good that there is barely, if any, penalty for using them. It's supposed the change is being made to save weight and free up space. The next 4 Series range is aiming for a lot more sportiness, so on top of its CLAR (cluster architecture) body, it's expected to get active steering, adjustable dampers and anti-roll bars, bigger brakes, and brake-based torque vectoring. Detail improvements like reduced-friction wheel bearings, and faster torque transfer for its all-wheel-drive system are on the long list of upgrades. So too are aluminum and carbon fiber wheels, which will likely be developments based on the carbon wheels BMW showed off last year. Driver assistance options will be legion, with remote-controlled parking, semi-autonomous driving up to 40 mph, and hands-free overtaking perhaps among them.

BMW X5 driver repeatedly fails to understand big rig braking distances

Fri, 19 Sep 2014

Nobody should be shocked that a big, heavy vehicle like a semi truck takes a longer distance to stop than the average passenger car; it's just basic physics. However, this BMW X5 driver seemingly has a major problem grasping the concept, and it results in some serious damage to the back of his SUV.
The whole incident is very confusing to watch. The BMW doesn't even seem to have a reason to slow down before the semi slams into the back of it at fairly high speed. But to make the situation even weirder, the crashes just keep happening again and again.
To give the BMW driver a little credit, he appears amazingly calm when surveying the damage afterward. But you have to wonder what this guy was thinking when trying a harebrained move like this. Check out the video to watch the carnage unfold.
