2001 BMW m5 Dinan Edition

2001 BMW M5 Description

If you have ever wanted to purchase a true drivers car "offered for sale a Bmw M5 Dinan Edition" that has been taken to the next level this is your chance. My friend has this beautiful example that is turnkey and is very fun to drive with a stunning interior, looks and the power to match. I have a 2000 M5 and can't describe how great the M5 is and when you add the Dinan options it just takes it to the next level.

This is a great car from the Tampa area. If you are looking at this you already know what the E39 M5 is all about. So what makes this 2001 different is the perfect mix of colors, power, and Dinan upgrades. Tampa doctor with long commute had C2 Designs Tampa add a Dinan package and had a front and rear radar detector installed. Then added 100K I-75 highway miles on this beauty early on. Then a Tampa Porsche mechanic held custody for many years.
Everything works with only a few minor items needed, driver seat has twisty and window sprayer needs a fresh line. No pixelation in dash, but typical of these Dinan upgrades include, performance software, cold air intake, engine crossbar, exhaust, and short shifter. Rare M detail ribbons on the seats, clear euro headlamps and side markers. Recent suspension refresh with brand new Michelin super sports front and Nitto 555s on back for traction. Also new battery and a box of interior LED lights included that need install. Regular trim and rubber replacement has been done as needed. Last month I replaced front and rear bumpers with paint so no typical rock chips or scratches. There is a parking lot jerk ding on the driver rear quarter at bumper line but small and hard to see in pictures. Tons of power and lots of fun. I put regular refresh money into this car for the long haul but the reality of too many kids in college in need of basic transportation has pushed me to sell.

FROM MOTOR TREND:
Studying the M5’s specs gives you a clue: 400 horsepower, 395 pound-feet of torque, 11.0:1 compression ratio, 7000-rpm redline, six-speed manual gearbox, and 18-inch wheels should make for a lot of fun in any car. But it only takes one drive to convince you beyond the shadow of a doubt: BMW has herewith created the greatest BMW's.

Pop off the carbon-fiber-trimmed engine cover and revel at the sight of the sophisticated port fuel-injection system replete with one venturi butterfly per cylinder. The drive-by-wire throttle system is integrated with a cockpit “Sport” button that, when activated, livens up the rate of throttle tip-in for seriously quick response. The Sport setting has no effect on engine management other than rate of throttle opening, so ultimate power remains the same. However, the Servotronic power steering system also is linked to the Sport button, increasing steering effort and sharpening the response for better road feel and control during athletic maneuvers.

Other powertrain upgrades include upgraded cooling system, semi-dry-sump oiling system (with sensors that detect high lateral g-loading and redirect oil from the cylinder heads back to the bottom end), and a free-flowing dual exhaust system with four stainless steel tips jutting out from the notched rear fascia. A fortified six-speed gearbox (matched with 3.15:1 rear axle gearing) is the only transmission offered. The none-too-subtle message: This is a sport machine first and foremost. Poseurs need not apply.

At this point, you’re beyond trying to impress anyone else with the M5-specific ultra-supportive bucket seats or titanium interior trim. Who cares if there’s a programmable interior ventilation system to cool the cockpit when you’re away, a computerized navigation system, or onboard tire-pressure monitoring? Just wait until the fluids warm (thanks, guys, for the oil temp gauge) and the tachometer’s electronic yellowline moves up from 4000 to 6500 rpm. Okay, now you can wipe the annoying smirk off the face of that megabuck sports car driver in the next lane. Reach down and switch off the Dynamic Stability (traction) Control, then switch on the Sport button (both thoughtfully placed right next to each other). Rev ‘er to a mere 1000 rpm (any higher and you’ll just smoke the tires), flash your opponent an equally snotty look, and wait for the green light.
