Tell me more about that M5. Be a good member and share, lol. That is the ultimate M5 for me as well. Good luck on both fronts.

That's a damn gorgeous E39 M5.

If you aren't in a pinch, just wait for the right buyer who will appreciate it. You want to see it go to a good home anyways. I agree with detailing the work that has been done. If people are in the hunt for a clean, well maintained version of this car and have seen crap ones, this will resonate. GLWS. I always loved that colour and those rims.

That is one clean 4.6 indeed, I see it on the road from time to time and I'm always impressed. That said I know Mercedes Benz has a red e39 m5 here in town but it's not pristine by any stretch. The M5 in Carmel looks great, just make sure that's not the tamper dot to the left of the mileage reading on the trip odometer.

Are the valve seals an issue with this engine?
