BMW X5 Le Mans Experimental Build
BMW X5 Le Mans Experimental - Only ONE Produced
Created in 2000. This beast would make Dr. Frankenstein smile. Its V-12 engine with 700 Brake Horsepower, was more powerful than the 24 Hour Le Mans winners of 1995 and 1999. Why has anyone done this yet on an X5?  In other BMW forums.........people made: E36 wagon powered via S50B32 E39 wagon Powered via S62B50 E91 wagon powered via S65B40/44   The donk (Australian slang for engine) maybe the issue perhaps.

I did do this, and it cost me thousands! NEVER imitate Hans Stuck.. Unless, your bill fold can back it up! Mine is bruised.

Very nice.
Looking from the car looks like they modified the front bumper, headlamp (pre-facelift), roof rail delete and retro-fitted side mirrors. Rims are 20inch BMW Motorsport? Looks like a BBS e-88. I assume it's using a e39 M5 instrument cluster and steering wheel. Just can't figure out from what car are the side mirrors and door panel / trim?

I do recall that it was only RWD and literally nothing from the E53 was in the drivetrain.

Yes, it's RWD. There are 2 videos in this article. The one with Hans Stuck driving is in German, but turn up the volume because that X5 sounds wicked!!

But really no one really dared to atleast clone it externally sans the motor! Maybe to ricer for some taste.....  With E53's dirt cheap price now....something to think about!  I may have similar Rims and side mirror....just need to find which boxes in the shed.

I saw the car in person at Le Mans in 2000. It got a lot of attention in the paddock. That is probably when I first said I wanted an X5
