Basic Information and History

Now is your chance to get your hands on one of the most iconic sports sedans of modern times – the BMW M5 E60. With its high-revving V10 and advanced technology, this model has already become a collector’s item and a favorite among enthusiasts worldwide.

This particular example has covered 226,274 km and is an import from Florida, USA. The car has a well-documented history, with the current owner being the same person who drove it in Florida before importing it to Sweden. This means the car has only had one Swedish owner and, in practice, has been cared for by the same hands both in the US and Sweden.

Thanks to its origin, the car is 100% rust-free and has never seen salt or winter roads. The current owner has maintained it meticulously, with receipts documenting bearing replacements, a brand-new gearbox and clutch, and refurbished brakes. The car has been both carefully maintained and continuously improved to ensure the best possible experience and reliability for the next enthusiast.

Condition

Body and Exterior:

Overall in very good condition with no rust damage. There are stone chips at the front, a paint peel on the bumper, and a scratch on one fender. Minor scratches and marks in the paint are present (see pictures). After installing a wing/lip on the trunk, a polish is recommended. Badges, trim, and glass are intact and in good condition.

Interior:

Good condition considering age and mileage. The black headliner is in near-perfect shape. Some patina is visible on the seats, and the rubber on the door sills has loosened somewhat due to Florida heat. Controls, steering wheel, and buttons are in very fine condition (one fan button has minor damage). Some electronic functions are missing: the lower part of the front seats cannot be adjusted electrically but can be adjusted manually.

Wheels and Tires:

Tires in very good condition, far from needing replacement. Wheels with minor scuffs.

Mechanics and Functionality:

Mechanically in top condition. The engine runs superbly, brakes have been recently serviced, and the gearbox and drivetrain function perfectly thanks to new parts and continuous maintenance.

Service History

The service history is excellent and thoroughly documented with previous records and receipts.

Technology and Driving Experience

At the heart of the E60 M5 is the legendary 5.0-liter V10 engine (S85) producing 507 hp and 520 Nm, directly inspired by BMW’s Formula 1 involvement. It revs all the way to 8,250 rpm – and the sound from this engine is something that must be experienced.

Power is delivered through a 7-speed SMG III sequential manual transmission, providing lightning-fast gear changes. 0–100 km/h takes around 4.7 seconds, but it is above all the mid-range and rev-happiness that make the driving experience unique.

The chassis is designed to balance comfort and precision with adaptive dampers, M Dynamic Mode, and variable servotronic steering, giving the driver a sense of total control.

Summary

The BMW M5 E60 is one of the most uncompromising and iconic M cars ever built. The V10 engine, high-revving nature, soundtrack, and precise chassis make it a sports sedan in a class of its own.

This example, finished in Silverstone II metallic with matching Silverstone interior, is not just a piece of engineering and design history – it is a car that offers everything: power, sensation, and reliability. Perfect for both the collector looking for a well-documented and unique car, and for those who truly want to drive and experience the M5 as it was intended.
