Yep comfort seats fully electric with many adjustments and lumbar changes one can make - even the headrests are electric. These seats are also heated and I think cooled as well.

Flippen awesome car. Would really like one of those in my garage one day. Hold on to it! Must sound awesome.

It's not quite original, there are facelift headlights on pre-facelift model. They look great though... I have been considering facelift lights on my 2000 e39 m5.

Not sure if that is right bud - the facelifts have clear indicators in the headlights and mine has the yellow ones. Think these came with the Euro spec , which is what this is.

Steering wheel and radio point to prefacelift spec. Rear tails are non "led" spec ie prefacelift.
Those headlights look like the standard facelift units found on non m sport models. Some none M sport models had the clears all round as an option. All local e39s are "euro" spec in that we do not have the US version of the DOT approved headlight with the built in sidelight.

Here she is. carbon Schwartz. Bilstein shocks. New conti sport tyres. Just fitted larger vanos accumulator. New timing chains and guides. Driving like a new car!

Next I'm considering front brake upgrade with f12 m6 calipers and rotors.

Looks absolutely stunning. Let me know how it goes with the brake upgrade - I needed to change my front discs but have realised that no one seems to have this except agents.

Will do. May be easier to get newer model discs. I tried ATE directly and no stock.

I had the pleasure of seeing this car in the flesh this past Sunday afternoon, and I must say it is in impeccable condition! Also good meeting Moe too ha ha!

It is truly a gem...very well kept and that 8 cylinder sounds INSANE!!!

Turn salt bro - this barn find is a must keep...definitely don't let it go!
