2001 BMW M5, 84,300 miles. Imola Red and Caramel interior with alcantara headliner. It is completely stock other than the 6 Disc changer was swapped out for DICE Ipod adapter. I no longer have the CD changer. It has been garage kept it's whole life and never driven in snow or ice. No rust on the car what so ever. This has not been my daily driver, just a car I get to enjoy a couple times a month when the weathers nice. I purchased the car from the wife of the 2nd owner in Olathe, KS, it was originally a Dallas car. I did all the dealings on the purchase from her deceased husbands best friend, which was a BMW owner and member for the KC chapter. They provided me with a lot of maintenance history which I still have today. Prior to purchasing the car I spoke with the dealership in Dallas where it was purchased new and did much of the maintenance and warranty work. The dealership really only need to do the scheduled maintenance other than they did repair/replace the pixel display on the gauge cluster. There are NO PIXELS OUT on any of the displays. When I purchased the car I knew it had a very small leak that appeared to be coming from the rear main seal. Took it to Bavarian Auto in Wichita KS (they are the premier BMW shop in Wichita) to check it out and it was indeed the rear main seal so I had them replace the main seal. At the same time I had them put a new yoke seal at the differential, which was a common leak issue on these cars. I also had asked them to let me know what the clutch looked like while they was in there, I had no clutch issues, but since he was in there figured it would be the time to look. He told me it was at approximately at 50% worn. He told me he would only charge for parts to if I wanted to replace the clutch, so I told him replace it. All that was done about 3000 miles ago. I put a new set Hankook Ventus V12 tires on the car about 1000 miles ago. I have done all the regular maintenance including oil changes, new plugs, etc since I have owned the car. The car is in great shape inside and out and runs great. I don’t know of anything it needs and the only flaws the car has is it does have road rash on the front. I was always going to have the front re-sprayed but could never get myself to leave it at a paint shop to get it done. It does also have a small scratch on the rear bumper that has been touched up but still noticeable and both fog light lens are cracked but working. The interior is also in great shape. These are really quite amazing cars, if you are seriously considering purchasing a E39 M5 this one should be considered. This car is ready to go anywhere anytime. I hate to part with this car but I want to make some changes and I only get to drive this car a couple times a month. The pricing on these cars are all over the place but you typlically get what you pay for with these cars. Personal inspections are welcome, I will help with that any way I can. I can provide any addition pictures by request. Please also feel free to contact me with any questions you might have. The car is also listed for sale locally, if the car sells locally I will discontinue the auction. Not sure why it shows 2 owners, it should list 3, me being the 3rd owner. I have clear and clean title. On Dec-22-12 at 07:46:04 PST, seller added the following information: Notice: Paypal can only be used for deposit. If paying balance by cashier check or money order, because of possible fraud, payment will have to clear the bank before the car/title can be released. Cash payments are immediate.
