This 2002 BMW M5 is finished in Blue Water Metallic over Caramel Nappa Heritage leather, and it is powered by a 4.9-liter V8 linked with a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes Dinan lowering springs, aftermarket dampers, 18″ alloy wheels, xenon headlights, a sunroof, Park Distance Control, heated power-adjustable front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, navigation, and a Bluetooth-capable CD stereo. The seller purchased the car in 2017 and work under current ownership included servicing the engine and differential, overhauling the brakes, and replacing the tires. This E39 M5 has 136k miles and is offered with an owner’s manual, service records, spare parts, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Virginia title in the seller’s name.

The car is finished in Blue Water Metallic (896) with Shadowline trim and features xenon headlights with washers as well as front and rear parking sensors, rain-sensing wipers, a glass sunroof, a trunk lid spoiler, and quad exhaust outlets. Paint protection film is applied to the leading edges of the front bumper cover, hood, and fenders in addition to the mirror caps, door cups, and door edges. The left fog light lens is cracked and the right hood release sticks.

Chrome Shadow 18″ Style 65 wheels are mounted with Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires. The car features Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) with All Season Traction, and the suspension is modified with Dinan lowering springs and aftermarket dampers. Braking is handled by braided stainless-steel lines feeding four-wheel ventilated discs measuring 13.6″ and 12.9″ front and rear, respectively. The front brake rotors and pads were replaced in 2020 and the rear brake rotors and pads were replaced in 2023.

The heated power-adjustable front sport seats and contoured rear bench are trimmed in Caramel Nappa Heritage leather. Dark Poplar trim accends the dashboard, shift knob, center console, and door panels, and additional appointments include dual-zone automatic climate control, cruise control, a UUC short shifter, navigation, and a Bluetooth-enabled factory stereo linked with a trunk-mounted six-disc CD changer. The seller states that the passenger seat exhibits the “seat twist” issue, the left rear door lock functions intermittently, and the rear door seals require replacement. Two Ultimate Cupholders are included in the sale.

The multi-function leather-wrapped steering wheel fronts an M-branded 185-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a variable redline, along with gauges for coolant temperature, oil temperature, and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 136k miles, approximately 41k of which were added under current ownership. The ignition switch was replaced in 2024.

The 4.9-liter S62 V8 features individual throttle bodies, double-VANOS continuously variable valve timing, a Corsa Performance cat-back exhaust system, and a Shark Injector ECU calibration. Work performed since 2020 included replacing the following components:

• Thermostat
• Fuel system leak detection pump
• Fuel tank vent valve
• Bank 1 intake camshaft position sensor
• Oil level sender
• Mass airflow sensors
• Accessory drive belts
• Primary oxygen sensors

The most recent oil change was performed in May 2024. Blackstone oil analysis reports from 2018 and 2020 are presented in the gallery.

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Getrag six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. A heavy-duty Sachs clutch was installed in 2013, and work in 2024 consisted of replacing the pinion seal and changing the differential fluid.

The Carfax report is free of accidents and other reported damage.
