New video as of 10 September! Comparisons in several intervals.

Finally the thrid longer video comilation below:

New video on Youtube.

Same video on Streetfire (somewhat higher quality)

Video on Google Video





Older videos below.

First video here:



BMW M5 Kelleners at idling



BMW M5 Kelleners in D5 vs standard BMW M5 in D5 P500S sport.

Started in the morning to drive down to southern Sweden, it was very rainy in the morning


A Mercedes S class comes up behind and tried to overtake . Judging by the performance it must be a S500 or less. Went up to the limiter to show that he ad now chance. Traffic was coming up so I braked well in time before to save the brakes. However, it was not what the Mercedes driver did :



Almost going through the cars he manage to completely toast his brakes, just because he wanted to be first So massive smoke from his brakes and he was very pissed after that when I overtook him again. Anyway, good he had some braking power left.



Perspective view is very nice with the upgraded DVD navigation!



Arriving when the sun shines I get help in getting the car cleaned, now it is finally blue instead of black!



Now clean. If you are organizing an M5 meet, I will DHL you free m5board.com stickers. Just e-mail me: gustav@m5board.com



The BMW M5 E60 had Breyton 21' wheels and the M5 E39 is completely standard.





The Kelleners M5 E60 really sounded like a raw sports car, the idle ith a cold engine was about 10 times louder than the M5 E39 that was standard.



The M5 is also lowered as you can see. Breyuton 21 wheels.



Hartge steerign wheel and pedals.



Carbon inserts in the wheel from Hartge as well as excellent grip woth even more countoured for the thumbs. Picture without flash above.



and with flash.



Hartge pedals.



Posters in the garage.

Going to meet up member cidair of m5board.com with his Hartge M5 E60 with Hartge front spoiler, rear diffuser, and 21 inch wheels.









Leaving for Germany and unrestricted Autobahns.



Heads up display shows first gear and stationary.






ON a unnamed part of a foreign highway stretch somethign orange come up in the rear view mirror:



A British Lamorghini Gallardo. He wanted to play and we did, he never gave 100% however, which maybe was good for the E39 M5...







Also spotted the new Volvo C70.



Finally at home







Here you see the M5 specific illuminated entry lights for both front and rear passengers.

Complete report of the Kelleners Sport M5 E60 performance will come this week.

Stay tuned.

Like the lowered look of the E60 does it still have the stock electronic suspension with different springs?

How was the ride quality?

Awesome write up. Were those H&R springs with those Breyton wheels?

Very cool write up and great pictures!!!

I have questions about upgraded NAV system. Is it for E39 or E60? Is it OEM? When was it installed?

Nice to see new shots of your M5 E39 Gustav

BTW I met a orange Gallardo with foreign plates outside Halmstad. Must been the same Gallardo.
