This 1989 BMW M5 represents a European-market variant, showcasing a striking Diamond Schwarz Metallic exterior coupled with Light Silver-Gray Nappa leather upholstery. Under the hood lies a potent 3.5L S38 straight-six engine, which harmonizes seamlessly with a six-speed manual transmission. The vehicle's journey led it to Canada, where it was imported by the preceding owner. Since acquiring the car in 2021, the seller has diligently undertaken a series of recent improvements and replacements. These encompassed critical components such as ball joints, control arms, sway bar ends and bushings, tie rods, spark plugs, the drive shaft, drive shaft bushing, pinion seal, valve adjustment, and the installation of a new valve cover gasket. A comprehensive fluid replacement, spanning from coolant to differential fluid, was also conducted, addressing all necessary areas.
This Euro E34 M5 is being presented with its original factory books and manuals, supplemented by partial service records. Additionally, it comes with a clean Alberta registration, which is registered under the seller's name.
For US bidders, this M5 is directly importable without modification as it is EPA & DOT exempt being greater than 25 years old. For more information on transport/import please visit our Transport/Import page here.
The exterior is coated in Diamond Schwarz Metallic, complemented by paint-matched lower skirts, valances, and mirrors. The seller has pointed out the presence of stone chips on the front bumper and some minor door dings scattered across the body. Additional imperfections have been thoughtfully documented in the gallery below. This car comes equipped with factory 17" M System forged wheels, showcasing distinctive directional 'Throwing Star' covers. These wheels are shod with Falken Ziex tires that are reported to be just 2 years old. Furthermore, the vehicle retains its original Electronic Damping Control and self-leveling rear suspension systems, ensuring consistent performance. Braking duties are handled by four-wheel disc brakes, maintaining stopping power and control.
The gauge cluster is encircled by an M-Tech II steering wheel, featuring a 300-km/h speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer that incorporates an oil temperature gauge, and displays for fuel level and coolant temperature. The digital odometer registers 312k-kilometers (~198k-miles). Adorned in Light Silver-Gray Nappa leather, the seats harmonize with a matching lower dash, center console, and door panels.
Recent maintenance carried out since 2021 reportedly encompassed the replacement of several components, including ball joints, control arms, sway bar ends and bushings, tie rods, spark plugs, drive shaft, drive shaft bushing, pinion seal, valve adjustment, installation of a new valve cover gasket, and a comprehensive fluid replacement from coolant to differential fluid, addressing all areas in between.
The 3.5-liter S38B36 inline-six engine boasts dual-overhead camshafts, individual throttle bodies, and Bosch Motronic engine management, with a factory rating of 310 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels through a five-speed manual gearbox and a limited-slip differential.
