BMW E39 M5 Tuning
The 2000 model year e39 M5 got a few face lifts over the prior year.
These cars are easily identifiable with the circular surrounds in the
headlamps and the auto leveling bi-xenon low beams. These became a BMW
M5 signature element more affectionately known in the BMW e39 M5
community as "angel eyes". And they look really cool, especially at
night. Many e39 m5 owners upgrade them with a more color matched LED
from aftermarket parts suppliers so they look like the same as the xenon
headlights.Some other great features that BMW M engineers put into this
great car for the year 2000 was three position memory control for their
awesome electric powered front seats. Other electronic gadgetry that
was upgraded included a six compact disk audio system - the only
drawback being that the head unit was in the trunk.
Of particular contention is BMW's PDC for e39 m5 - Park Distance
Control. These used e39 m5's are actually quite big as cars go -
however, they are quite easy to park. Yet, if you shank one of their
beautiful wheels, you have created quite a problem for yourself as any
off-balancing in any wheel is going to create quite a shudder at high
speed and wear out those high performance tires. Fuel economy remains
quite low for a 2000 e39 m5. But what can you expect for a high
performance sedan that seats four, no make that five adults in total
comfort at 155 mph? Rain sensing wipers were a very popular option in
the 2000 model year and they work quite well with a low and high
setting. Another fun and useful feature introduced in the 2000 bmw m5 is
an auto down-tilting passenger mirror when the transmission is placed
into reverse gear.
Safety features included the first application of tubular head airbags
on both sides of the car, which come out of the ceiling.Note that some
owners have noticed even firmer suspension tuning from the factory in
this model year compared with previous models. Many of the performance
tuners really got their game on by this year and there were many useful,
yet expensive modifications available such as chips and other engine
mods. All said, a 2000 BMW m5 remained the 'businessman's express' for
this year - relatively quiet, very comfortable and unequalled in power
and handling. Arriving in this car will convey modesty - but to the
knowning eye, an appreciation for what remains one of the best values in
the performance aftermarket used car space.
