2006 BMW M5

The 2006 BMW M5 marked the arrival of one of BMW M's most celebrated modern performance sedans, pairing understated executive styling with Formula 1-inspired engineering beneath the hood. Offered here with just 21,956 miles from new, this exceptionally well-preserved example is finished in Black Sapphire Metallic over Portland Brown Merino leather and Madeira Walnut wood trim. Factory options include heated M front seats with Active Width Adjustment, Head-Up Display, rear side-impact airbags, power rear sunshade with manual side window shades, Smoker’s Package, and universal garage-door opener. IDrive navigation, a moonroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a clean Carfax report round out its stunning spec, relevant and highly capable to the present day.

Up front, BMW's legendary 5.0-liter S85 V10 brings 500 horsepower and paired with the 7-speed SMG automated manual transmission, sending power to the rear wheels through an M Variable Differential. Black powder-coated 19” Style 166 wheels arrive wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires installed in 2023 at 19,942 miles. This super sedan further features cross-drilled ventilated brake rotors with black brake calipers, exterior chrome trim delete, and a cat-back exhaust system enhancing the unmistakable soundtrack of its naturally aspirated powertrain.

A binder of service records is included in the sale, along with a key fob, factory literature, and the original exterior chrome trim. Combining low mileage, desirable factory equipment, documented maintenance, and one of BMW M's most iconic powerplants, this E60-generation M5 represents an increasingly collectible performance sedan from the manufacturer’s early 2000’s golden era.
