So good to see her back together. Hoping she treats the next owner well. This was super fun to watch and glad I could be part of the journey, even as a spectator.

I just bought an 2003 e39 530i that I'm nursing back to health, otherwise I might consider this lol. Good job diagnosing and fixing the M5. And thank you for all your past e39 videos, they have been most helpful.

Good job Nate. I know there is enormous amount of work that you do us subscribers don't get to see. You really need to have a higher asking price and work down. The E60 M5 is essentially a bargain priced supercar!

Awesome job on an incredible car. Let the bidding begin!

Fair price with the recent maintenance done on KZfaq, would if I could. I've had to sell a 2013 335 and a 2003 540i to buy a house in this market, down to one BMW (X5).

Well done Nathan!

Nice work Nathan!

Amazing work

Nice car!About 3 years ago I drove one with 6 speed manual and the only thing that didn't like was that you really have to go passed 4000 rpm in order to really fill the power,and that doesn't fit my driving stile.I like torque 😁 but other that that is a beautiful crazy machine 🙂

It always amazes me how few new car owners actually specified manual transmissions. The SMG may be a little faster round the track but why worry about that. In real life you can see the road ahead and you know what you want to do. No autobox can do that... The other major factor is how mutch you want to slip or abuse your clutch. In a manual you may accelerate hard however you can back off during gear changes and not slip the clutch at all, it's your choice depending on the situation. Same goes for pulling off from the the lights. SMG will destroy the clutch in no time as you can't do much to protect it. On the down side most people who drive a manual transmission are not very good at it, most people cannot doubble de clutch and have to rely totally on the syncromesh. People often end up slipping the clutch between changes and destroying them.

If I can get my e39 m5 sold I’m all over this

I watch Nathan too much. I actually had a car dream when sleeping this morning and he was in it.

I’m never first, but surely not last. Thanks for the videos. On to the white M5 now? You can find a used rack on eBay, seen some seals but they’re listed for a steep price Like Ricky Bobby’, if you aren’t first your last. Ricky Bobby’s dad: oh hell son, I was high when I said that. You got second and third.

Damn, I was hoping you would have a little drive time video of this bad boy.

I would love to buy this car

Can’t wait to see the white m5

So jealous of who ever gets this car.

Man I wish I didn’t already have 3 vehicles waiting for me to actually have money and time to fix at the house or I’d but this 🤣

I have the money but I need to build my garage. Down in central America they're asking what you're asking for just higher for the import taxes but comes to the same. But with no maintenance History and SMG... This is the one. But too bad other thing are in the way in life

Trade you a 98 M3 vert (hardtop included) with a uninstalled Dinan super charger and a Shrick intake 😬. As it sits it’s stock with Dinan spring and Dinan strut tower brace with those other parts would make for great content

😁👍

Nathan, those ruthenium NGKs work good on the M5? That’s the first time I’ve seen them out on a BMW let alone this one. Very cool. And you used Bosch coils with them?

Dont use lucas ps steering stop leak. Use AT-205 instead

Nathan, You ever seen 510B error code in your M5's?

even as a spectator.

Excellent example of an excellent car but half price.

where you located?

You are a master tech Your middle name is Bavarian I think

How much are you looking for to sell this M5?

what a piece of junk. even if you fix it to 100% it will be broke and back in the shop in 6 months.
