Hellbm E39 M5

Recommended Posts

Finally after all my years of waiting I`ve got myself a post `00 M5.(build date 05/01)

Fresh Bilstein with a Tubi exhaust system.

A few cosmetic items to sort out then it`s of to OCD for its makeover 

Le Mans Blau with all the facelift options available.

Though there were no major mechanical alterations to the E39 M5 during its entire production run, there were a number of equipment alterations that appeared with the 2001 model-year M5 (from 9/00 production). These include:
-Revised headlight design incorporating illuminated "Corona" rings 
-Revised tallight design
-Park Distance Control sensors in the front bumper (previously in rear only)
-Thicker three-spoke M steering wheel identical to the one fitted to the E46 M3
-Grey instrument faces 
-Solar sensor for standard automatic climate control
-Revised navigation/audio unit with larger (6.5-inch) monitor
-Rear head protection airbags added
-Second-generation M Mobility tire repair system in place of earlier version
-Available M Audio System with special tweeters, Kevlar/carbon coaxial speakers and two subwoofers behind the rear console
-Alcantara headliner included with Extended Leather interior (previously only included with Complete Leather)

Cool - great to see you have another sacrificial lamb for ripping the heart out - haha.

Great spec - it is loaded!  Is the exhaust right through or just rear cans?

S62 conversion with E39 M5 front susp.brakes and servotronic steering box.

The best of both combined to make something special.

Nav. now upgraded from MK3 to MK4.

Trialing a square setup with 275x35x18 all round. 5 mm spacers on the front. Great improvement to overall feel and handling.IMG_2526(1).thumb.JPG.3afb08fdac5dba843a7a68128839e6ff.JPGIMG_2581(1).thumb.JPG.1a4386ff3780f330e00fef86c9662b25.JPGIMG_2582(1).thumb.JPG.c5d7f9157f0518b3bfb941c3e0eb785d.JPG
