The E39 M5 is widely regarded as one of the greatest performance sedans ever produced. Combining understated design with a naturally aspirated V8 and a 6-speed manual transmission, it set a benchmark that modern M cars continue to chase. Powered by the legendary S62 4.9-liter V8, the E39 M5 delivers 394 horsepower with a level of balance, refinement, and mechanical engagement that remains unmatched more than two decades later.

This 2002 BMW M5 is finished in Le Mans Blue Metallic over Black leather with Le Mans sport seats, a particularly desirable and purposeful specification. Showing just 23,500 miles, this example presents in outstanding condition, retaining a clean, factory-correct appearance throughout. The exterior paint is well preserved and protected by paint protection film on the partial front end, mirror caps, and A-pillars, helping maintain the car’s original finish. Inside, the sport seats remain firm and supportive, with minimal wear consistent with careful use and long-term preservation.

The car is well optioned, featuring split-fold rear seats, Park Distance Control (PDC), and a full complement of original accessories, including all keys. It remains completely stock and unmodified, preserving the integrity and character that collectors and enthusiasts value most in an E39 M5.

Enthusiast Auto Group has long-standing familiarity with this example. The car was previously sold by EAG in 2014, who has maintained it carefully since. Its ownership history, low mileage, and condition reflect a pattern of enthusiast stewardship rather than casual use.

In preparation for presentation and sale, this M5 will receive Enthusiast Auto Group’s standard intake evaluation and preservation process , a detailed multi-point inspection, verification of fluids, systems, and components, and light recommissioning consistent with EAG’s delivery standards for investment-grade vehicles. All work will be carried out to maintain the car’s originality and ensure mechanical integrity for its next caretaker.
