Up for auction with NO RESERVE is a really clean and beautiful 2001 BMW E39 M5 4-door sedan. The car is completely stock and has never had any modifications. Only two owners since new and the current owner has owned it since 2005. It has been meticulously maintained and cared for. This has always been a California car and does not have any rust anywhere. It has never been in any accidents, never smoked it, always responsibly driven by an adult. Never abused, never raced or recklessly handled. Always garaged, still with its original paint. Over ninety percent of the miles were accumulated with highway driving often averaging around 30,000 miles a year due to work being significantly far from home. This is documented and is reflected in the Carfax history report listed below. According to Carfax there is an added $2,420 value to the current book value due to the documented history. The car has mostly been maintained at a BMW dealership and other maintenance performed by a specialized German technician and shop. Some service records are available including the last documented clutch and fly wheel replacement which was done at about 210,000 miles. Currently the car is in very good condition and has plenty of life left in it. All major service is up to date. Mechanically everything is in great working order with no imminent maintenance required. The only thing recommended by the mechanic for the next service is to change the front brakes and rear tires. It drives smoothly and handles fantastically well. It does not emit any noises, no squeaking or rattling of any kind. The ride is the perfect combination of quite, very powerful and responsive. This M5 is fully loaded with all available options including Premium M Audio with  navigation and a 6 disc CD changer, Alcantara headliner, two tone gray and black leather interior, parking distance sensors, remote keyless entry and alarm, heated seats, dual zone climate control, angel eyes with Xenon leveling headlights, 60/40 split rear fold down seats with ski bag section, rear sun shades, traction control, adaptive stability control, 6 speed manual transmission with pre lit shift knob, universal garage door opener, moon roof, this list goes on and on. On many forums and amongst BMW enthusiasts this is considered to be the best M5 every made often referred to as "The Beast". All electronics are in great working order, with ice cold air conditioning, all buttons, windows, functions operating nicely. No spots, scratches or blotches on the navigation screen. The rearview mirror is in excellent shape and did not leak or turn blurry, which is very common in the E39 M5. The rear sunshade needs to be replaced and has already been purchased. It's included and is boxed brand new in the trunk.  There is a small crack in the lower lip of the front bumper, a minor dent and scratch on driver's side rear panel. Driver's seat backrest has some visible ware but is in good overall shape with no tares in the lower cushion. Small chips in the front in a few places from lots of highway driving. Faded clear coat on rear bumper. Curb rash on some of the wheels. Clean California title in hand, currently 263,833 miles on the car, the California registration expires in September of 2014. Also included in the auction are the two BMW keys, both with remote and alarm access, original owner manuals. ***Where the manuals are pictured it looks like there is a quart of oil next to them. This is just a leaflet explaining what oil is recommended for the M5 in the shape of an oil bottle.***  I can help arrange shipping the car anywhere to the national 48 states in the US. Shipping price will vary according to your location and will be added on top of final end price of the car. I just shipped a BMW SUV to my mother in Chicago from Los Angeles for $700. That should give you a rough idea of pricing.  I have plenty of feedback as a seller and have sold many valuable and expensive items.
