Mate has one of these and an e36 m3 as well. We both love it - such a weapon on NZ roads and a great daily. Just been booting around Coromandel in it and it is perfect for NZ B roads. It just puts a smile on your dial. Crazy value. Look forward to hearing yours with that fancy exhaust.

Not sure many people buy them as an investment. Most people have an interest in them and if it holds value then bonus. If it goes up in value double bonus......

There is an active E39 M5 community on a closed Facebook group if your friend would like to join. We are overdue for a catch-up and a beer.......would be a good excuse to greet a new Imola member! PM me for details

Just trying to work out if it is a plain silver or a brushed silver look. My M5 has some discolouring on one door trim which I would like to fix but it looks slightly different? Has a slight brushed finish to it. What is your view of the finish?
-
Does anyone know where this car ended up as a friend of the long term owner in Southland is keen to contact the current owner.

Mmmm one of the nicest ones left........wish I had a warehouse.......

Have you been vaccinated against the sickness? Selling one means the immune system is getting stronger. Seems a shame to be selling a peach ? It’s a score for someone.......

Lots of car for the money......is there a new steed?

These get under your skin......looks pretty well preserved compared to the majority. Lots of metal for the money. Needs to bought by an e38 tragic to save it from a one way trip to thrashed out VIP RIP land.......

Why go to the effort and then move it on..........And in the process loose a bunch of wedge.....

Shame it is a rare colour. They are beautiful in the flesh.
One ended up in a ditch courtesy of a naughty son borrowing it from dads garage......HellBM was the recipient. Another regularly goes down Quay St in Aucklamd City as a daily driver with the plate AWSUM5.
The pre-facelift spec has grown on me - if the front lights are in new condition they look great.
I think the running costs are pretty reasonable if it’s a Sunday car. Daily it and the costs are more crippling.
I think an M5 is a lot of car for the money. You could spend $30k on a HQ Holden and just accept that is the price!

Great you got a WOF.....VTNZ must have had the riot act read to them by LTNZ as they just failed my GTR for having adjustable castor rods......they have been on there for a decade......insisting on a cert. FFS.......
they don’t want to carry any risk.

It’s being restored at the moment by a worthy owner.....saw it recently and it’s being done right.

Cool - let us know when it arrives - there is a great mini tribe around the e39 M5 with a quite active email and catch up mindset.

Awesome. I see this in my future too......my e38 only has 110km on it but has noisy suspension.......I like the concept of your change.

His name is Rauly and is on here infrequently. He is used to own a red 2002tii which he sold to build a restomod 2002 ....in progress. His shoe is a nice car - great fun to drive! Lives on the shore and goes to caffeine and classics quite a bit.

He put so much effort into commissioning the build and it is a great result but I don’t understand why you would go and sell it. Maybe I am too sentimental and closed off to new experiences! Been driving an e38 for 13 years!

I’m confused......why a Prius when an X5 is a different proposition?
it could be a lot of car for the money......just like my $4900 e38 which continues be a great barge . Totally happy with my cheap old risky BM. Just check everything......

Cool - does it have EDC shocks? Curious to hear how the bilsteins go when and if you go there.......

Michael you are taking things too seriously....it’s playful and that plate was originally on a 2002tii. I like it.

Plugging a mates e30. It is a peach and it would be nice to keep but two other classics and a 130i being put into daily use means he’s compelled to thin the herd...........if you want a nice E30 take a look......

M5 F10 MODEL
in New Member Introductions
Posted · Report reply
Good man - sell the Merc or Jag? Would like to hear more about the F10. I picked up a NZ new F10 528i Motorsport with the six. It’s no M5 but still a nice ride. The M5 is a handsome devil......
