2000 BMW M5 Base Sedan 4-Door Description

Royal Red 2000 BMW e39 M5. (Reserve drastically lowered for easy sale!)
Only 87 e39 M5s were finished in Royal Red. This one is even more special being that it is fitted with Complete (stitched doors and dash, alcantara pillars, package tray and headliner) Caramel leather and the large screen Navigation system.
This is a higher mileage m5, but just as strong as the day it was new. These cars are meant to be driven... and this car is proof that they are even better for it. It is not perfect, but is extremely striking and an absolute joy to drive. I would get in this car and drive it anywhere. It's that solid. If youhaven't seen Royal Red in person, its staggering. The color can change depending on lighting conditions. You can see in the pictures... some of them it actually looks like a different color.
This car carries a clean South Dakota title. No check engine light, but as of this moment it will not pass California emissions because of the common SAI carbon build up issue. I have built an SAI simulator to stop the light but the monitor is not complete. I have a coding cable and have been planing on coding it out.... but haven't gotten around to it since the sim deleted the light and there is no functional or performance drawback. If you can do coding, or do not live in California this is not a problem at all.. and if you know how to use the software you can use my cable when you pick it up.
Paint is great... but not perfect. There was some fading on the rear bumper where the coloring is a bit off, and there are rock chips on the hood/fenders fromnormal driving. There is a crack at the top of the windshield that does not leak and will not grow because it terminates at both ends. The worst part of the body/paint is the passenger side front door has a dent. Its about the size of a dime, and can be seen in the pictures. Interior is good but there is wear and cracking of the front seat leather. There is some wear and light cracking in the back, but I think that even a good conditioning treatment can have theback looking new again. Motor, trans, etc is fantastic. It does burn some oil like most s62s... about a quart per oil change. Adjustable shocks is the only Non OEM modification to this car apart from the SAI SIM. The style 65s are painted gold (not my first choice, but I got them that way and it actually looks pretty dang good) and wrapped in brand new Hankook Ventus tires. New brakes and plugs. Recent oil, coolant, ps, brake and clutch fluid replacement... as well as less than 10k on a new clutch/fw.
I welcome anyone to come look at the car.... bring experts, mechanics etc... but I WILL NOT let anyone drive it until I am convinced you aren't wasting my time. Please be serious.
Specific or detailed pictures available upon request. Viewings can be scheduled on the weekend, as the car is in storage at the moment. I reserve the right to end this auction at any time in the event of a local sale.

Thank you for looking.
