Just bought my first M5

2001 M5 silver/black, 21,500 miles, 1 owner, Damn sweet, perfect condition, i swear i saw brand new out of show room compared to mine, i couldn't tell the difference!

I wanted it before I become too old ...

I have had these before
2000 S2000, bought in 2000, crashed and sold it
2000 Land cruiser, drove it a year sold it
1999 328 I..beautiful fun car, HD Rox
2000 528i, trying to sell it still
2000 Lexus Rx300 , trying to sell it still
2001 Accord I will keep this so I don't have to drive my M5 everywher, in the rain, snow, sleet, to downtown, blah blah..


My M5 is missing the DVD navigation disk, only has 1 key, and missing the owner's manual.....can you burn the DVD?

How much did you pay? I've been looking for one myself.
Silver and black like yours... my other two BMW's are in Titanium as well.
I was going to wait for the new one. But, the way BMW's been pricing their cars lately, I don't think I can afford it... And, the new design...

Re: Just bought my first M5

Very good choice!

Keep the Honda for everyday-use, it's a shame to use the M5 in everyday conditions. it's a fun car and perhaps the quickest limo with sports-car qualities.

Also for the people looking for a M5. Check the produktiondate! Car till 03/01 used to consume too much engine oil. Many of them had engine failures and had a new engine or a new motorblock("small block")

At 03-04/01 there was a motorrevision. The new ones had new cylinders, new motorblock and new Oils were used. Castol TWS 10W40

The prices in germany for a 2001 modell with 30-50tkm are about 35-50k€

I might be joining the M5 family pretty soon too. Currently own an E36 318is, Black on Black, Manual Tranny. Love it! I want to get the last of Non-Bangle BMW, thus shopping for an E39 M5 or E39 530i 1998 or up. I checked a few deals where I can get an M5 with about 50-60K miles on it, for $30K-35K USD with a trade in of my 318is. Seems like a good deal. But I want to keep my E36 (We got a good history together, it's a mutual respect thing, LOL) so, might end up getting a 530i, so that my ol' girl can stay home.

Enjoy your M5 man, you are one of the lucky ones.
