I think this was when Dinan went from being a really good BMW tuner – to a really good and well known BMW tuner. It was when Car and Driver produced this article. Anyway, this article is many years old now, but it still reigns as a testament to both Steve Dinan’s ability as a [...]

Laying the smack down in an e39 m5
I just couldn’t resist – but had to watch this vid twice – Nick in his new e39 M5 put the hammer down and showed the camera man (of which I think there were two) how things get done in the beast. Lighting was awesome and the sound from his modded exhaust was sweet. Thankfully [...]

The e39 M5 Nurburgring Taxi as Driven by Sabine Schmitz
Sabine proves the point that girls can drive and drive well. This is a video clip soft from a Porsche 911 GT following Sabine in the e39 M5 at the ‘Ring. I’ve watched her drive in other videos and there’s no question that she knows the ‘ring, the m5 and of course how to drive. [...]

E39 m5 Owners Group on Facebook
Steven Hunt has been kind (and smart) enough to put together a Facebook group for the e39 m5. It’s a “just for fun” club, but is serves a key purpose and that is to connect many people who are owners of the Beast through today’s most popular social medial platform. It is open to the [...]

BMW M5 F10 Renderings
Jonsibal has some great renderings of the new 5 series over at his site here. The bumper isn’t any surprise at this point because it’s been out for a few days. But the sad part (at least in my opinion) is how lame the front end is looking. BMW is taking too conservative of an [...]

An Original E39 M5 Video Review
Somehow the Brits do a better job of doing car reviews. I’m not sure why, perhaps they are just better at articulating cars than anyone else in the world. Something about a British accent describing high performance cars perhaps. This video review was and still is particularly good because it’s done on the rain testing [...]

Motown Spanks Munich! BMW M5 vs Cadillac CTS-V
Well – here’s a vid that will surely get some people mad. I mean – Detroit is trying to show the world how it can best the M5 for almost half the sticker price. This video shows the e60 m5 against the latest Caddy CTS-v in the usually comparisons of speed, slalom and performance specs. [...]

BMW e39 M5 vs Corvette LS2
Nothing like watching the e39 m5 take on some American muscle. This e39 m5 has the following mods: headers, cats, exhause and ECU. The ‘vette is stock. It is a close race for the first half – then the ‘Vette stomps. The thing to keep in mind here is how damn close the race is. [...]

More M5 History From Wikipedia
Wikipedia has one of the best pages I’ve seen on the BMW M5 history – probably because its user generated and people are so passionate about these cars. There is a ton of information over there about the M5, including the E39 m5. Pretty much every spec that you could ever think of is there [...]

Beautiful British Columbia Imola Red E39 M5
There’s nothing quite like the Imola Red e39 m5′s. One of the M5 Board Member’s is a terrific photographer and has taken some killer shots with his Nikon D90. The pictures can be seen here. Imola wasn’t initially the most popular color with the M5 owners because it was such a bright color for a [...]
