The perfectly preserved BMW M5 sedan that we are telling you about and that you see in the photos was produced in 2001. This car was discovered in the USA, and the interesting thing about it is that the car looks brand new. Details of the find were reported by the site Carscoops .

This BMW M5 E39 has seen very little use and has been kept in a garage. The first owner owned the car until 2023 and took good care of it. In 23 years, the mileage of the sedan is only 40,000 km. The compartment and interior of the car are in perfect condition, so it can be defined as a kind of time capsule.

This 23-year-old, one-owner BMW M5 E39 immediately sold for $98,000. The high price is due to both the condition of the car and its rarity.

The fact is that this BMW M5 has a special dark green exterior color and caramel leather interior. Only 71 cars were produced in this configuration. The equipment also includes a sunroof, electric seats and climate control.

BMW M5 E39 is now increasingly valued by collectors and is considered the so-called. a modern classic. The sports sedan was produced from 1997 to 2003, with a total of about 20,500 cars with the M index being assembled.

Under the hood of this BMW M5 is a high-revving 4.9-liter V8 engine with a power of 400 hp. The unit works together with a six-speed manual gearbox. The car accelerates to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds, and its maximum speed is limited to 250 km/h.
