Additional equipment includes heated and power-adjustable front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, and modifications such as a cold-air intake, a short-shift kit, a screen-based infotainment system with Bluetooth and navigation, and more. New brake pads, rotors, and wear sensors are said to have been installed in the last 5k miles along with X5 thrust arm bushings, a replacement windshield, and M Parallel wheels. This E39 M5 shows 71k miles and is offered with a Carfax report and a clean New Hampshire title in the seller's name.
  The car is finished in Imola Red, and the seller notes paintwork on the front bumper cover. An OEM windshield and molding were reportedly installed along with a new hood roundel at approximately 68k miles. The following exterior modifications have been added:

  The car has been lowered on BG springs over replacement 18″ M Parallel-style wheels wearing Nitto tires. Black-painted stock wheels are also included in the sale. BMW X5 thrust arm bushings are said to have been installed at 67k miles along with new brake pads, rotors, and wear sensors. The brake calipers have been painted gloss red with black brackets.
  The interior is trimmed in black leather with red inserts on the seats and door panels along with aluminum accents and an Alcantara headliner. Amenities include a power-operated glass sunroof, heated and power-adjustable front seats with driver's position memory, cruise control, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a navigation unit said to feature a new DVD drive and software update. The left front, left rear, and right rear window vapor barriers and seals are said to have been replaced under current ownership.
  The leather-wrapped multifunction steering wheel frames gray Motorsport-branded instrumentation including a 185-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a variable redline. The odometer indicates 71k miles, 5k of which were added in seven years with the seller. Haziness is noted on the rearview mirror glass.
