When it was launched, the 2000 BMW M5 was called the "greatest super-sedan of all time,' and with good reason. Sporting a 400 horsepower, V8 engine, a six-speed gearbox and 18 inch wheels, the M5 looked fun and fast to test drivers, owners and enthusiasts.
The M5 differs from the 540i - the cousin it is based on - in performance and appearance. Most notably, the M5 has unique front and back fascia with black cross-hatched grillwork in front, round fog lamps, and headlight washer nozzles.

January 24, 2008You simply cant have more fun that driving the e39 m5. It can be tuned to your liking and will spank just about every car out there without them knowing what hit them. The cabin is sumptuous, the six speed and handling create confidence. This is the BMW you drive when you want the Ultimate Driving Machine.
June 7, 2012the best car ever made, it is so fast not many cars can keep up with it wen its been de ristricted. very well buit. very refiend, smooth quiet . its more like a luxery family super car. fantastic to drive ( which bmw isnt ) once you drive a m5 there is nothing that can compair. it is legendery. you can sit doing 120mph. with 2 fingers on the wheel. you know exactley whats going on with the car, and there is no drama. many times i drive the long way home. just to drive it. and some times i find my self just going out in the car, just to drive i dont go anywere i just go for a drive. the 5 series bimmer has been rated as the best car in the world, many critics have all said the same. but its not all great. living in the uk. it is expensive on the petrol. but worth every penny. keep away from dealerships when it comes to servicing. they will pull your pants down when things do go wrong it is expensive to fix,but to be fair they dont go wrong often. if your gonna buy a second hand bimmer you cant go wrong with a 5 series. as a car and a machine. there isnt anything i can think of that is better to drive or live with. if you buy one it will become part of your family.
