Imola Red E39 M5 Evolve Supercharged

VCP · 04-16-2019, 01:00 PM

The spirit is deep in that E39M5 🙌 She's a beauty Imran.

_Mbition · 04-16-2019, 01:05 PM

Probably one of my favorite chassis/powerplants BMW ever built. I hope to upgrade from my beloved 540i one day to one of these in this color.
Condolences to the departed's family.
He built a complete beauty of a car.

///M TOWN · 04-16-2019, 01:12 PM

Maybe put on a Memorial plate remembering John.

Thanks for sharing Imran.

The car is epic.

6ixSpd · 04-16-2019, 01:24 PM

Absolutely gorgeous! Imola is the best colour for the E39 M5 by far

Reminds me a bit of my old beast:

IND-Distribution · 04-16-2019, 01:49 PM

Yes indeed! Your old car was looking fresh and clean bro. Imola Rot II color on E39 for the win.

I remember back in 2004, I was looking at a used stunning IR E39 M5 and that car really caught my eyes. Unfortunately, I couldn’t afford it around that time so I ended up getting a W210 E430 with AMG sport package.

One of the best M5's IMO. The build quality is amazing.

What a car!
In prestin condition. The exterior & interior is immaculately clean

The sickest M5 E39 i' ve ever seen.

We had it paint corrected and ceramic coated as soon as it arrived with us. Our detailer did an amazing job.

Indeed - holds many memories (late nights, swearing, exploding plenums etc

) for us even though we didn't own the car during the build process.

It is one of 5 cars that I am aware of that has the top Evolve Supercharger and full Evolve exhaust so I am planning on making a plaque for the car that will include built for "John XXXX"

Agreed Imola is the best colour on this platform.

Your old car is a stunner.

KevinM · 04-16-2019, 04:02 PM

I am sorry you required the car under these circumstances but I'm glad it's back home. Stunning.

After 15 years, my E39 M5 is still my overall favorite car.

Nexo · 04-16-2019, 04:27 PM

awesome build

RIP John

Oh my.....such a beauty

Lorde · 04-16-2019, 05:33 PM

Glad you guys got it instead of EAG!

Kr0m3assass1n · 04-16-2019, 06:45 PM

Forgot how beautiful these old BMWs used to look after examining the current design philosophy.

What a beauty. And what a heartwarming story behind it. So powerful how cars can emotionally connect with you.

DreamTime · 04-16-2019, 09:44 PM

There is so much beauty in this thread. Imola, E39 M5, super clean examples... I might need a moment to catch my breath

Housekeeping · 04-16-2019, 09:45 PM

Makes me love my Imola e39 M5 even more. This one is perfect

Haywood · 04-17-2019, 12:16 AM

Beautiful car. I love mine every day and realize why this is such a special model. It's the pinnacle for the M5 IMO and it's timeless. I only have 60k miles on mine and plan to keep it forever. As I've said before, I'd rather have an e39 than a new one. Condolences to the family, but glad she'll be well taken care of.
