GarageScout Take

E39 M5 powertrain conversion, with the 4.9-liter S62 V8, six-speed manual transmission, driveshaft, and rear differential sourced from a donor M5. The engine was installed in 2017 and received VANOS solenoid pack o-rings, an oil filter housing mount, an oil level sensor, and fresh oil in March 2025. The Carfax report lists a 2005 accident, and the seller states that the front bumper was replaced as a result and later repainted along with the trunk lid.

Strengths

  • M5 powertrain conversion
  • 2025 VANOS and fluid service
  • Style 37 wheels with 2024-dated Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires

Watch For

  • Carfax-reported 2005 accident, with seller-stated front bumper replacement
  • Potential Odometer Rollback on the Carfax report
  • Digital odometer reads 58,000 miles, while the removed stock cluster reads 120,000 miles and the seller states chassis mileage is around 140,000 miles
  • Repainted front bumper and trunk lid
