1991 BMW M5 Description

Stunning, low mile, all original 1991 (E34) M5 in excellent original condition.
Jet black exterior with dove grey leather interior. Zero rust.No accident history, no rips in the leather, no wear in the headliner, no cracks in the dash, no dents.Everything straight,everything working. Always garaged, meticulously maintained, and enthusiast owned. I am the 4th owner. Drives like a dream. Never raced.
If you're reading this, you probably know what you're looking at. The E34 M5 is a drop-dead beautiful, rare, hand-assembled machine (the last such from BMW's M division) that is appreciating rapidly in the collector market. In looks, it's the final, most sublime update of BMW's classic design language. In performance it's a beast with a sublime screamer under the hood, a race-derived naturally aspirated inline 6 cylinder engine making 311 hp. In 1990 a new BMW M5 would set you back $56,600 plus options. Only 1200 were imported.

Since it was new this car has suffered no modifications whatsoever, save the period-appropriate M System II ("Throwing Star") wheels.
  • Original tool kit (with blue towel)
  • Working cassette stereo
  • Trunk-mounted CD changer
  • Self-leveling suspension
  • Never-mounted spare
  • All books, original window sticker, Welcome Cassette
  • Optional heated front seats both work
This is a truly clean, complete, and original M5. That said, it is also a 25+ year old car with typical minor blemishes befitting its age: light wear to the driver's seat bolster, stone chips on the hood, curb rash on front valance.
I've owned this car since May 2014. All service in that time performed by BMW specialist Gauthier Motor Werkes in Ipswich, MA. Recent work and parts (from the past two years) include:
  • All 4 Michelin tires
  • Valve Adjustment
  • Valve cover gasket
  • Valve cover center gaskets
  • Oil pan gasket
  • New battery
  • Rear shock accumulators
  • Front struts
  • Sway bar end link
  • Fuel door hinge
  • Washer fluid level sensor
Recent life changes make selling necessary; otherwise this M5 would remain in the garage, while its value soars on the updrafts of every close relation in the BMW family. (Consider recent trends in collectibility of this M5's immediate predecessor, the E28 M5; its immediate successor, the E39 M5; and its contemporary, the E30 M3.)
I can't paste actual links into this listing, but because you need to kill a little more time at work, I recommend the following:
  • Car and Driver 1991 review of the E34 M5
  • The epic chase scene in Ronin
  • Contemporary articles and reviews on mmm-five(dot)net
  • Hagerty value trends on a 1991 M5 in near-#2 condition
Good luck and happy bidding. I hope this car goes to a good home.
