What were all the available add-on options on 2002 Model year M5's?

Is the maintenace 3/36 or 4/50? The warranty is 4/50, correct?

3/36 maint 4/50 warranty options were pdc, m-audio, split fold down seats, window shades only available on sport interiors, thats all i can remember ahh brings back memories when I debated over sport or luxury interior

Hmm, any pictures to compare to 2 by chance? The 2 M5's I've looked at had 2 tone colored seats/door panels. The insert color was on the upper half ot eh door panel. Does that help tell if it's sport or luxury?

The 2 tone leather is the sport pkg. Most will also have aluminum look trim, rather than wood.

Ok thanks, the 2 I found actually had wood trim instead of alum. Is the luxury interior where the seats have the leather with lines of stiching down it?

first you need to decide if you like the two tone,different leathers on the same seat (montana,nappa) and leather inserts in the doors and the aluminum trim OR do you like the soft same leather and all leather in the doors.also the dash looks richer in luxury

Well I greatly prefer the look of 2 tone leather. Breaks up all the black, and I the few others with non-black interior were Tan which I really do not like. The trim I'm ambivalent to. I could always replace it if it really bothered me.

I'm really in a pricing game. Trying to find cars to fit into my budget and in the years/mileage I'm shooting for. It looks like I can score an 02 with ~25k miles for $50-51k pretty easily, so that's kind of where I'm going.

Then I need to decide if I want M5 or M3, because I've found a few 2003 M3's that meet my requirements.
