A BMW E39 M5 owner and enthusiast himself, Brooks uses video to show people how to intelligently buy and cost effectively maintain the 2000-2003 BMW M5. His M5 Video Guide has saved people thousands of dollars showing them what to look for when buying the E39 M5 so they enjoy the best possible ownership experience.
There are a few key areas in the E39 M5 that you should know about if you’re considering buying what is probably, to this date, still the BEST 4 door car on the planet. Find me a car with 400 horsepower, the style, class and reliability of the BMW brand for under 25k. Can you?
The E39 M5 is officially a classic in my books. It is a cult car and will [...]

Ok – I’m just gonna say it – I love Dinan! The brand rocks. First of all – it was unheard of that they came out with a modification package that kept the full warranty in place for not only the e39 m5, but all cars they mod. Second (and this has been said before) [...]

Here’s one of many shots that photographer David Tormey took of his friends Imola red e39 m5. It’s an awesome shot showcasing the wheels, lowered suspension, intakes, blacked out kidney grills and tinted windows. Somehow the Imola Red M5′s look great with some green to contrast in the background. The sun setting through the trees [...]

Well…back in the day, it was the Jag XJR, the Benz e55 and more recently the Audi RS6. All serious contenders with loyal followers in all marques. However, the e39 m5 still trumps them all. The Audi showed up in 2002 and delivered a whopping 444 horsepower and is probably the next most likely car [...]

There’s so much content out there about going fast in the m5. Too much of it is reckless and a little too close for comfort IMHO. Here’s an example of a situation where 5 young men were going very fast on a runway said to be used by John Travolta and others in what appears [...]

This is a great video that was clearly put together by BMW. It’s in German and would really benefit from some subtitles, but it’s still awesome. I liked it because of the spirit of the M5 driving that was communicated. The e39 m5 is of course featured right before the e60, but not driven as [...]

Here’s a vid of a dark silver e39 m5 drifting on a two lane road in the Philippines. There’s a couple of spots where this guy nearly looses it, which makes it all the more fun to watch. Not sure what the exhaust brand it, but it sounds really tight. It’s cool to see dudes [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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. [...]
