Question regarding the Nowack N500.. - The Unofficial BMW M5 Messageboard (m5board.com)

Hey guys :-)

I was wondering what should be the price of a fully upgraded (engine, suspension, brakes) Nowack N500. Is there any forum member here with one of these?

Not that I consider purchasing one (with my money i can barely afford an used E34 :-) ) but that sounds interesting nevertheless.

Thanks, Roee

PS, if we're at it, I wonder what should be the price of a used E34, in good condition, anywhere around Belgium. What was the last year E34 were produced at?

I have no idea for price of nowack n-500
they don't give prices on their website...
the last year of E34 M5 was 95 , with 3.8 engine ,6 speed , 18" wheels and sport suspension as standard , check www.bmwm5.com
there you can find all the info and there's no sense of rewriting it

You could contact them at www.nowack-racing.de but last I heard the fully kitted out Dark Destroyer IN500 was about DM 30,000 on top of the stock M5. P.S. - Have you heard about the 515 BHP Racing Dynamics version....

The Racing Dynamics Z8 is the Nowack engine. Power is up 100 HP from original on the M5 engine.

We have compared a standard M5 from say 50 km/h to 140 km/h and the Nowack is ahead of the standard car before revving out 2nd gear. Fast but expensive. The modifications are made only made in Germany. I have met Oliver Nowack, the founder and he and his products made a good impression. His products are surely high-tech. Nowacl also have a conversion for the M3 E46 with 400 HP that revs to 8680 rpm.

The price is high but then he is the only one who offer these kind of power for the E39 M5.

Thanks for the info :-)

So what's the base price of the a new E39 M5 in germany, without taxes? If i move to Belgium for some time ahead, and I decide to purchase a M5, do I have to pay german taxes on the car (of course, assuming that I buy it in germany)?

(and if someone could also list the same prices for the E46 M3, i'd be happy!)

and thanks again!

Thanks for the info Gustav. I'm buying my '02 M5 in Belgium and driving it back to the UK - I will post the price paid after delivery (Oct 22nd). Anyone can buy a car tax free in any EU country and ship it to another EU country (and pay the sales tax locally). I'm saving a bundle (actually two bundles!!).
