For Sale 2003 ///M5 LMB/Black/Aluminum - The Unofficial BMW M5 Messageboard (m5board.com)

Hello All.

Been a while since posting. Hope all is well with you.

Just thought I would drop you all a line and let you know I'm selling the beast.

Car has been always well taken care of, serviced regularly, and the interior is mint. Also has lots of aftermarket goodies..

Details:
2003 ///M5 LMB/Black/Aluminum
Dinan High Flow Cold Air Intake
Dinan High Flow Air Mass Meters
Dinan 3.45 Limited Slip Differential
Dinan/Brembo BBK - Front
Dinan Monoball Kit
Kelleners Exhaust
IceLink Plus iPod Interface.

Fresh plugs and oil change.
Brakes and rotors are recently done.
Pirelli Sotozero snows.
Toyo Proxes T1R for Summer.

There are some negatives:
- High mileage (196K)
- Road rash (serious stone chips on hood)
- Needs coils

The mileage is from highway commuting, and the stone chips are from trucks on the highway.
The coils are tripping the engine light, and then it's going into limp mode after 20 minutes of driving. Fixing this is about $1500, or less if you want to do it yourself, or have a good connection, etc. I'm letting you all know so I can disclose things fully, and then you can just factor that into the price.

I want to move this thing ASAP, as I'm looking to get a diesel pickup for our ranch. If you are interested, and have a serious cash offer, let me know and you can come and pick it up. I live in Ontario Canada, 1hr west of Toronto.

Regards,
Vic

196K miles or kilometers?

Hey Beemer Guy.

That would be 196K kilometers, or just over 120K miles.

Can you post some recent interior and exterior pics? What ballpark price range do you want for the car (US$)? Thanks

Hello E39Classic.

The car is currently filthy from the roads (very much winter up here). If you are serious, I could give it a quick wash and take some pics, but it is pretty cold out. If your just browsing, then I'll save it for later.

As I mentioned, the interior is in great shape, albeit a bit dirty at the moment. It has the fold down rear seats and ski bag, along with electric rear sunshade. I can take my 3 kids and myself and all our gear skiing without needing a rack. Fantastic trunk

$15K US takes it. It has about that much in aftermarket goodies.

I know what you mean. It's been pretty cold here too. Snowiest December on record. I'm looking to get a car closer to the summer. If your car happens to be available later in the spring I might want to take a personal look at it. We're only a couple of hours away. Thanks
