[knux11]

part out the wheels? (or at least tell me the wheel name- work _____?)

[SoCaLE39]

Guys, I'll be getting some interior shots this week and will post them asap. Thanks

[bmxmett318]

Is that what the market is for an M5 in this condition?! Seems like an awesome deal.

[blz456]

Dang... that is one of the cleanest e39's I've ever seen. Pure beauty.

[uniter]

This is pretty much better than jesus, unfortunately I don't have the cash :.) Best of luck mano.

[POof540i]

Justin, are the headlights "Hella", if not, what brand are they? Also, is the navigation screen 16x9?

Oops, I just read you have predator angel eyes, so your headlights are from umnitza (Depo)?

Final question, any shots of the interior yet?

Thanks.

[BmW745On19's]

Those lights look factory Hella with Predator rings.

[SoCaLE39]

Hey guys, Headlamps are oem hella. The angel eye rings are oem but have the aftermarket bulbs. I thought they were predator bulbs but I may be mistaken (I bought them a long time ago).

As for the interior shots I have made plans on Saturday to take a few photos. Last weekend was extremely busy for me and I had to meet a few deadlines for my clients.

[Gh0sT]

FFS. Someone buy his car. Its a damn steal.

Socal. If I wasn't young and I wasn't broke. I would buy your car in a heart beat.

*BUMP*

[SoCaLE39]

Thanks ghost. Drove the car today and I know I'm going to miss it. I'll be doing a full detail next weekend and may be putting a fresh zaino coat. After next weekend this car is going to look absolutely amazing.

I'll be posting interior shots tomorrow :D

[859-NIV]

Trades? Otherwise i might have to wait until i sell my car. It's a 2002 530i with some mods.

[Danny G]

Where did you take those pictures, that back-round is great. Do you have any engine pix?

[SoCaLE39]

Sorry guys no trades. The location I took the photos - Diamond Ranch High School

Here are the interior photos

[zen68]

Your car looks stunning! I would buy it if I'm in market for a "new" car :D

[dtvarnum]

I am in the market for a new e39. This is an awesome 5er. I am really thinking...thinking..thinking. ..

[dtvarnum]

Do you have the stock wheels? Don't really care for the wheels you have but like the stock style 65s.

[SoCaLE39]

Sent you a pm dtvarnum!

[SoCaLE39]

Joe

[POof540i]

CAR IS SOLD!

New owner picking it up Sunday! Happy but sad :(

DAMN IT!!! :cry:

I was going to make you an offer this weekend too, oh well. Congrats and my condolences on your sale.

[SoCaLE39]

UPDATE sale is pending right now. If it doesn't work out I'll let you guys know. Car is getting detailed right now :D

My previous post stated SOLD but sale hasn't completed yet so I might have jumped the gun.

[SoCaLE39]

DAMN IT!!! :cry:

I was going to make you an offer this weekend too, oh well. Congrats and my condolences on your sale.

Pm'ed you!

[DaJackel]

I wish you were selling her about 9 months from now as I will probably be in the market for an E46 M3 or E39 M5 :cry: She's absolutely beautiful. I <3 Avus.

[SoCaLE39]

Thanks Dajackel. I just got done doing a full paint correction on the car about 30 minutes ago. Took me a quite a few hours but no more swirl marks and most of the few small scratches are gone too! I even pulled off all the exterior moldings to restore them to like new. I thought me car was pretty clean but now the paint feels so ridiculously smooth. I'll see about posting new photos :D

[Philip81193]

That car rocks my world!
Best of luck with the sale!

[SoCaLE39]

Thanks!

I'll be posting new photos this weekend!

[SoCaLE39]

Buyer backed out. Car is ready for a new owner. If you are interested please give me a call or pm me.

[SoCaLE39]

All pms replied. Let me know if you guys have any more questions.

[Jason5driver]

Your car truly is the BEST M5 I have ever seen!
If only the M5's were not so costly to maintain....

I would love to have it (dream come true), but I can't afford it...

[wildpanda86]

I would so jump on this if I sold my E46... but my significant other would kill me if I got another car... just bought a Trail Teams FJ Cruiser instead of an engagement ring.

I would still love to see it, I live in downtown Fullerton.

[SoCaLE39]

pmed you wildpanda86

[markseven]

Free bump for a great guy and a great car :thumbup:

[SoCaLE39]

Price Reduction to $17,500 FIRM with stock wheels

[msaleem]

more pics please..

[supark]

hey man - if you still have the car once I sell my 540i, I will def be interested.

Just to be clear though - the secondary air flow error code that you're getting is due to the carbon buildup that the S62 is infamous for right? If so I'd probably just need to do the powerchip upgrade to get both more power and get rid of the warning?

Also - how's the oil usage? I've heard that oil consumption can vary quite a bit between models - some using little to none, and others using a full quart in 500 miles.

Is the VANOS original or has it been replaced at any point? I assume you sold the works wheels huh?

[SoCaLE39]

Still have the Work Wheels. p0411 code is due to carbon buildup from my knowledge. I havent completely diagnosed it to confirm 100% but I'm pretty certain it is. Oil consumption is about a quart every 500mi but varies on how you drive it. After pushing the "sport" button on oil cunsumption may increase :D Vanos units are original from what I understand. Cam sensors have been replaced.

Before the weekend bump!

[SoCaLE39]

ttt

[Solidjake]

damn, sry to see it go. bump

[kingdunke]

17.5k seems pretty reasonable for such a beauty. free bump!!

[JackEatsEmoKids]

17500!

That's less than I paid for my 530i :cry:

I wish I had the money!!!!

Good luck with the sale. I love your car, it's perfect.

[SoCaLE39]

Thanks for the compliments guys. Hope to find a home for her with a member here before I go the ebay route. Great car for the asking price and it has a some good mods done to it also.

[DarkSide]

beautiful

[SoCaLE39]

Lots of hits this past weekend. If you emailed me and I didnt reply please email me again

[jessief29812]

how far are you from SF/SSF? nice car and bump how much are u asking with those wheels .. im guessin 18.5 k?

[SoCaLE39]

Located in LA area. I'm asking $19.5k obo with the wheels.

[POof540i]

Free bump for a stunning car. I echo a couple member's opinions here, if I could sell my car I'd definitely buy yours.

[SoCaLE39]

Another bump. For those interested please no lowball offers. This car doesnt show its mileage and is well taken care of. Some of the members here can contest that this car is incredibly clean....more than average and the major services you would need to do with a car that had 80k is already done. Lets not forget this car is NOT stock and has been very tastefully modded.

[kingdunke]

bump bump. is it sold yet?

[edgar620]

Im interested in the wheels if they will fit on the M3.

[SoCaLE39]

not sold yet.

[edgar620]

Is this the typical price on an M5 with these specs? I never looked into the actual price but it does seem low except for the high milage of the vehicle. It looks clean though.

[SoCaLE39]

I can tell you that this car does NOT show its mileage one bit. I have seen several M5s that have lower mileage and this one still looked in much better condition. Remember if you are looking into purchasing an M5 with around 70-80k you will have to replace brakes, clutch, etc and all this has already been done on this car.

[ketchup]

what's up Justin!

[cjwheeling]

I'm having a hard time believing that this car is still for sale! I buy these cars wholesale and wouldn't hesitate to buy it for $17.5 if I were in the market.

[POof540i]

I'm having a hard time believing that this car is still for sale! I buy these cars wholesale and wouldn't hesitate to buy it for $17.5 if I were in the market.

I know what you mean. I would buy it in a heartbeat if I could sell mine.:( I love my car, but an M5 is an M5!!!

[SoCaLE39]

I've had a lot of people interested who want to test drive but only a couple have done so. Test drive this car and I guarantee you won't be dissappointed.

Ketchup, pmed you!

[kennedy1989]

the same car would much cost more in canada. i assume in Australia as well

[SoCaLE39]

left hand drive would make it more rare over there :D

[SoCaLE39]

$18,500 with Work Wheels. Starting to think I'm better off keeping it.

[SoCaLE39]

[4dreuropean540i]

Trust me I'm just as shocked. So many members here have seen it and with all the goodies, I would have thought it sold months back. I'm leaning more and more towards keeping it. We'll see...

[SoCaLE39]

Thanks Petener999!

Registration and smog just done. I'll have new tags next week!

[mic0ne23]

[cjwheeling]

Just curious, did you get the $18.5?

[petener999]

:thumbs::supdude::grouphug::freakdanc:sabrina::cla p::guitar::smokin::beerchug::lmao::drink::thumbup: :DCongrats

[SoCaLE39]

Hurts to let her go but I need a newer family car the fiance can drive. I got what I wanted so I am happy, although I have a feeling the new owner is going to be happier. I have to say I just about gave up and told myself if the car wasn't going to sell by the end of the year I was going to keep it and figure something else out. I love the M5 and would tell any BMW enthusiast to drive one. Great handling car and the power is intoxicating.

Looking at an 05 545i now so we'll see if I go over to the dark side :D

Thanks everyone for your support and comments, I really appreciate it.

Sport pack E60's are awesome looking :thumbup:

[ghostinhere]

the 545's are cool.. until a 550 pulls up next to you. personally, i'd buy an '08 535i and put dinan's software on it.. you get more power than a 550, and it weighs and costs less.

[SoCaLE39]

I'm not looking to replace the M5 power with a 545i. Hopefully in a year I'll be shopping around for a C6 Z06 and the 545i will be the family car. At least that is the plan.

[edgar620]

Who was it sold to?
