></O>The E39 M5 was available in the <?XML:NAMESPACE PREFIX = ST1 /><ST1
LACE w:st="on"><ST1:COUNTRY-REGION w:st="on">United States</ST1:COUNTRY-REGION></ST1LACE> from September of 1999 to June of 2003 and a total of 9992 examples were sold. This particular cars’ exterior is Anthracite Metallic (limited to the 2001 model year and only 397 M5s were painted with this color). The interior is black leather with burl walnut trim. The paint is flawless, not even one ding and the inside is equally impressive. The odometer reading (as of early February 2008) is ~104,000 miles, which works out to just shy of 15,000 miles annually. The majority of my driving is on the freeway. This M5 was delivered well equipped with every factory option offered and has been very well maintained by an enthusiast owner. Below are some of the noteworthy aspects of this car…..<O></O><O
