Vehicle Original VIN : WBSNB93548CX08413
The BMW M5 has always been a special combination of luxury and performance, but the boys in Bavaria pulled out all the stops with the E60 version, which further blurred the line between sedan and sports car. The E60 is by far the wildest sports sedan to ever wear the blue-and-white roundel, and although the design was polarizing at first, it's quickly become a collector-grade vehicle nearly 20 years since it's introduction. With screaming, 500-horsepower 5.0L V10 power, a 7-speed paddle-shift transmission, and more electronic aids than a 747, this is the technophile's dream car that feels right at home on the track.
The M5 is all about big performance in a subtle package, so you won't see wild spoilers and graphics on this BMW. In fact, it could almost go unnoticed by the general public as something special, and I suspect that's just how M5 owners would prefer it. Sure, park this one next to a garden-variety 5-series and the difference become quite obvious, but as it sits, this car has a quiet confidence and an understated look that's insanely appealing. Obvious M-Division giveaways in the E60 include the three intakes integrated into the front bumper that account for the V10's need for copious amounts of air (not to mention more effective brake cooling), slightly wider front wheel arches with functional grilles, aggressive side skirts, aerodynamic side-mirrors (replacing the beloved square mirrors enraged many BMW fans), a redesigned decklid complete with a deep license plate holder, and the sculpted rear bumper that accommodates for those wicked quad tailpipes below. These are all functional and extremely important design elements that help this M5 fly through the air with minimum drag while maintaining a favorable 53:47 weight distribution, but only the Germans could make it all look so subtle. The Interlagos Blue Metallic paint is appropriate for this high-tech Autobahn missile, and for nearly 0,000 in 2008, you got very impressive finish quality that resists the passage of time. The doors close with a firmness that feels like the interior is hermetically sealed and the glossy paint has an inner glow that makes this car look incredibly expensive. It's not showroom-new anymore, but it's pretty darn close, showing only very minor signs of use and age. Things like the deep chin and rocker panel extensions are in excellent shape, suggesting careful driving all its life with a paltry 39,795 actual miles. And the only major giveaway that this is an uber-sedan is the M5 badge on the trunk. Cool, right?
The sumptuous black leather interior offers every bit of tech you could wish for, all wrapped in the finest materials this side of a Bentley. The leather seats are supportive and all-day comfortable and show minimal wear for their 14 years of life. There are silver accents on the dash, center console, and door panels (instead of optional woodgrain) a touch that looks very sporty and livens up the monochromatic interior nicely and with big, round M-spec gauges including a speedometer etched to 200MPH and a tachometer with a moving redline indicator that corelates to the engine temperature, you're easily able to keep an eye on the important stuff. The multi-function, M-specific steering wheel is nicely weighted and that joystick in the center console is for the 7-speed sequential transmission, which BMW called the SMG III and includes launch control, a hill holder, and shift-lock avoidance. The round knob on the console is for BMW's first-generation I-Drive system, which controls the navigation system, climate control, entertainment system, and about a zillion other functions, and yes, it'll take some familiarization, but that's what technophiles love. And with all the performance, you still get a big trunk and a usable back seat.
The 5.0 liter V10 aluminum alloy 90-degree engine is more race engine than commuter machine, and was designed from scratch by M Division for this car and this car alone. With 507 horsepower on tap and a 8,250 RPM redline, it was both the quickest and fastest 4-door in the world in 2008 and even today, the performance is shockingly potent. The look under the hood is clean and very well-maintained and the 7-speed sequential gearbox sends torque to the rear wheels vial a locking M differential and allows the driver to shift gears manually on the floor-mounted shifter or metal paddles behind the steering wheel, so go have some fun. The exhaust is muted at idle but the V10's F1-inspired firing order offers a rising crescendo wail at speed and it bangs through the gears like a shotgun blast. You'd better be ready when you plant the loud pedal, because things start to happen VERY quickly. Fortunately, there are giant brakes at all four corners and equally massive 19-inch wheels with 255/40/19 front and 285/35/19 rear Continental performance radials.
Beautifully preserved and a thrill to drive, this shockingly affordable A-list performance car absolutely won't last long. Call today!

General Terms
Terms & Conditions
We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below).
FEES
: A documentation fee of 9 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees.
AVAILABILITY
: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation.
CONTACT
: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours.
INSPECTION
: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale.
PAYMENT
: We require a non-refundable 0 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers. SHIPPING: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle.
DRIVE IT HOME
: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility.
DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE
: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances.
VIN VERIFICATION
: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title. Buyer agrees to hold seller harmless from any disputes arising from other hidden or secondary VINs present on the vehicle as seller only verifies the primary VIN location. If needed, it is the buyer's sole responsibility to verify secondary VIN locations their specific state may inspect, prior to purchase.
MILEAGES
: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase.
CONDITION
: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors.
AS-IS
: All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and with no warranties expressed or implied. If you choose to waive inspection, do plan to have a detailed and transparent conversation with us regarding the vehicle's condition. Ask the hard questions up front. Please just call us, we are here to help and welcome all your questions!
DISCLAIMER
: This site and all advertising information may be updated without notice whenever new information is obtained and may contain mistakes and inaccuracies. Information is provided to the best of our knowledge and we make no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, truth, or reliability of such information. We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle. We strive to perform extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible that there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent. All vehicles are sold AS-IS with no warranties expressed or implied.
Fees and Taxes
Sales tax, title, license fee, registration fee, dealer documentary fee, finance charges, emission testing fees, and compliance fees are additional to the advertised price. Vehicle is listed locally, we reserve the right to end the auction at any time.
