Do all 2001 5 Series models come with angel eyes?
Heres why I ask...

I was working today at my store and I was doing cash at the front. I happen to be beside a window facing a busy street.
Anyways, I looked out the window in time to see a beautiful black BMW with angel eyes cut out in traffic, cut someone off and floor it away. It looked and sounded GREAT!
He was out of my view one second latter and all I was able to see was the angel eyes and the side of the car disappear out of my view.
I unfortunately don't think it was an M5 because I think it had the normal 5 series side mirrors and I didn't see any ///M5 symbol on the bottom paneling either.
I wasn't able to see the rear of the car

Anyways, I was just wondering if maybe it was a normal 540 or something. But even if it was...it looked great and sounded great.

Damn I love those angel eyes!!!

Yes. All 5'ers for 2001 have them. The good news is that although this means less exclusivity, replacement parts should be easy to come by.

I actually really like the angel eyes... i think tehy should put them on all BMWs... they look soooo much better. I've seen them on regular 3 series and they look good too.
