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 [...]

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.
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 [...]

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 [...]

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. [...]

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. [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

There’s no question that this video was and still is the best car ad/ video ever made. How fitting that it would be about the e39 m5. I remember the first time I saw it. The year was 2000 and it was on the BMW website. I would later find out many years after first [...]

You gotta love Jeremy Clarkson – he’s the kind of guy that you could talk cars with until your eyeballs pop. Somehow he’s managed to develop a vocabulary that is totally fun to listen to talk about cars. He talks about the e60 M5 as … “a ungainly thing with a lardy backside and the [...]

Well, it’s not surprising that the beast gets driven in the winter – but it is odd to see great pictures of her in the snow – probably because it’s always too cold for the camera man to take good picture while freezing his fingers off! Even with DSC and narrower tires, four hundred horsepower [...]
