Even with such a reputation, people still decided to improve the BMW M5 E39. In the case of one particular owner, upgrading the E39 proved to be a bad idea. Using parts from radically different BMW models, like the M4 and M3, the owner of this particular M5 E39 ruined the balance that defined this particular vehicle. This BMW now looks like a mix between three different cars. In fact, the identity of this BMW M5 has been hidden behind all those M4 and M3 parts. This car could easily be identified as Frankenstein’s car. While the car is not completely ugly, the BMW model mix is definitely something that most would consider weird.

The white color of the vehicle partly saves the look of the car. The integrated parts are less visible in white. Still, if you take a closer look, you can immediately notice the horrendous mix of parts from different BMW vehicles. The parts were adapted to fit perfectly with this BMW M5 E39. It is the different styles of these parts that turn this car into an unconvincing build. The front of this particular BMW M5 E39 is wide, while the back is quite narrow.

This particular project build shows that mixing BMW vehicles is not really a great idea. Such a project could be interesting to see. The end result will always be strange on account of all the different styles integrated within one car. You could say this is something more of an experiment. The aim of such projects can only be to see why you shouldn’t combine parts from different car models in one single build. There is no doubt about the fact that this particular BMW M5 E39 is ruined by the added modifications. While a lot of work might have been put into this particular build, the result is simply unconvincing.

For Michael this car is more than just history. It is an extension of his character. While this BMW M5 E39 does not include a long list of upgrades the ones that have been applied fit very well with the car’s character leaving the core BMW experience untouched. The vehicle’s well balanced look and feel is the result of carefully planned upgrades. Nothing feels overdone with this particular build. The amount of work and passion put in this car can be seen from a mile distance.

The modified 4.0 liter V8 engine in this particular build is enough to convince anybody of the power that this BMW M5 is ready to unleash once the engine is started. With 450HP under the hood, Michael is quite satisfied with the raw performance this car offers at this point. The performance aspect is completed by an Eisenmann race exhaust. The exhaust also contributes to the louder, more aggressive sound of this BMW M5 E39.

Visual performance upgrades for Michael’s BMW M5 E39 include a custom front bumper and lip, a carbon fiber rear diffuser and a set of 18 inch SSR Koenig rims. All these contribute to the aggressive new look of the car. They build on the car’s already existing personality and make it stand out. The dark blue paintjob completes the look in a stylish way. All these visual upgrades equally contribute to the improvement of the car’s performance.

Michael’s BMW M5 E39 is a unique, stylish and aggressive looking vehicle. The balance between performance and looks is impressive. This particular build is the perfect example of how a few aftermarket parts can change the whole look and feel of a car. Without radically changing its structure, this BMW M5 E39 has everything it needs to impress. It is without a doubt one of the most successful build projects for this particular model and simultaneously one of the most satisfying, given the fact that Michael doesn’t seem to go anywhere without his trustworthy BMW. One might say that the two seem to complete each other.
