Description
This 2001 BMW M5 was specified in Le Mans Blue Metallic over Caramel Nappa Heritage leather, and it was registered in Florida and Texas before it was acquired by the seller in 2015. A 2000 M5-specification 4.9-liter S62 V8 with ARP rod bolts and replacement rod bearings and timing chain guides was installed in 2026, and additional work following the seller’s purchase included paintwork and replacing the clutch, tires, and assorted timing, suspension, braking, cooling, fuel delivery, and shifter components. Equipment includes a six-speed manual transmission, a limited-slip differential, 18″ Style 65 wheels, a sunroof, xenon headlights, fog lights, heated power-adjustable front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, aftermarket audio components, and a touchscreen Bluetooth stereo. This E39 M5 has 116k miles and is now offered at no reserve with manufacturer’s literature, a seller-provided service summary, spare parts, a Carfax report, and a clean New Jersey title in the seller’s name. The car is finished in Le Mans Blue Metallic (381) with Shadowline trim and features xenon headlights with “angel eye” inserts and washers as well as fog lamps, a glass sunroof, a trunk lid spoiler, rain-sensing windshield wipers, and quad exhaust outlets. The Carfax report lists “minor damage” to the left-front and rear portions of the vehicle in a March 2016 entry. The seller notes that paintwork was performed under current ownership, and that aftermarket M5 front and rear bumper covers have been installed. A replacement windshield cowl, hood roundel, and trunk emblem were installed, and the sunroof motor was rebuilt in 2026, per the seller. There is a ding on the right side, and the Park Distance Control system is inoperative. Close-up photos of exterior imperfections and paint meter readings are viewable in the gallery below.
