Love the fingernail marks all over the leather near the door pull on the LF door image. As far as the wear and tear, it looks normal. Mine at 42K was worse due to nails and ring wearing wifey driver and brat scratches on the right seat back from the rear seated child kicking. You have to love 1st owners who just drive 'em and then sell when it gets expensive. Mine came on the market when the trade in quote for the new X5M was going to be $10K!

Meanwhile Kelly says it is only worth $7800-$10,130. Our X5's just get don't the love.

Not yet Stephen. Not yet. But their day will come. They're enthusiast vehicles now as we're the only people who can or are willing to maintain them.

Less 4.6 / 4.8s were made than M5's.

There were 1.2-ish million E39s though.

That information will pop in people's minds soon though.

Still don't know which is more complex though. 4.6 or 4.8

4.6 is tuned by ALPINA which I assume is more valuable

Hell, my 2004 4.8is with *12k* miles was only $10k more than this- TEN YEARS ago! Between nice price and crack pipe, I call crack pipe.

Haven't heard that in awhile. Haven't perused Jalopnik in a very long time.

But I agree. This is closer to crack pipe given the color and general condition. At least at this time.
