As one of the rarest BMWs, nd one of the best-performing, he cars have maintained good value and there’s every reason to believe they will continue to be popular. The rarest would include the black interior with heated seats, ut that shouldn’t affect the price. They’re all prizes.""The M5 was based on the E28 chassis shared with the 535i, ut included a more powerful engine based on the original BMW M1 sports car. The engine was a 3.5-liter DOHC inline six rated at 256 hp and 243 lb-ft of torque. The engine was coupled to a five-speed manual transmission, nd all M5s included a limited slip differential. The M5’s list price in the United States was $46,500.":"The first generation of the BMW M5 was the fastest production sedan in the world when it was built, ith a 0-60 time of 6.5 seconds, nd a top speed of 148 mph. It is also among the rarest modern BMW models in the world, ith total production of just 2,191 cars."In the corners the car handlesextremelywell andbenefitsfrom being slightly lowered with Bilstein shocksandh&r springs. The car brakes exceedingly well as it has as standard four pot calipers up front from the factory. The wheels are free of curb marks and are polished bare metal, o worries of clear coat issues, ust like the cars single stage no clearcoat paint. The environment inside the car is fantastic. This car came with every imaginable feature as standard and it all works. Has been brought into the modern day age with a Bluetooth stereo system. (original head unit and code come with the car) The air blows col, he seats leather are supple and look fantastic. The currently installed comfort package seats are not touched up in anyway and the patina is impressive.virtuallyno wear. just age that you cannot buy.speaking of age that cannot be bought...the paint on the car is far from perfect but has very nice patina. the hood, oof and trunk have been resprayed with correct single stage paint as these surfaces were getting very thin and it just needed to be done.the sides of the car are original paint and still has the hand painted original pin-strips. this is the area were authenticsurvivorpatina benefits the carin myopinion. the car does need to be brought to a shop and have some bottom of the doors issuesaddressed, nd the trunk gasket area as well. there is one breach in the metal on the drivers rear fender the size of a peanut but its contained to theexteriorwall. My plan if i were keeping the car as a collector would be to spotaddress these paint issues, ell the outstanding comfort seating and return theinteriorto stock.This work would, ccording to the Hagerty condition guide bring the car to a condition three which is currently valued at 36k... hencemy asking price of fourteen thousand less. vistit hagertys website for full pricing and condition expectations.
