2002 BMW M5 Reviews, Pricing & Specs

This is the most awesome car I've ever owned. It goes from 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 secs!! Beats out most Porsches! AND... it seats 5 comfortably. It's a blast to drive! The only thing I would want to upgrade at this point is the GPS system. The present one uses regional CDs, I'd prefer a DVD based system. Other than that we're together til the end (its got 120K miles and drives like new!)Dec 29, 2008

Well I had mine in Blue for bout 2 years. Drove up here and there traveled bout 15-20 thousand miles. Not that much really but the experience was great. I still believe that the e39 body looks so much better than the new,huge,appaling e60 eventhough the newer M5 is just the Engineering Excellence. So this e39?what is so great about it? Firstly is that it looks good and mine didn't come with a flappy paddle gearbox which at that time was not really the "in-thing" because it had slow response and people just could not see the use of it. Then comes the comfort. I think that this car was not as comfy as a sofa but it was much more comfy than the 7 series which had all the new gadgets and they totally forgot bout the seats which were left like a ride in rocky mountain and the boot which was an after-thought. My M5?5 litre V8 with not 400hp but 550hp. I had a supercharger in place in that car and I remaped the ECU box. That car was superb. If you want a low budget supercar. Should get of of these E39 M5's.Jan 06, 2008
