Used Car of the Day: 2002 BMW M5 Dinan

Today we head to Florida for this Tampa-based 2002 BMW M5 Dinan.


It appears to have been well-maintained with a lot of Dinan bits, including exhaust, cold-air intake, and chip. There's also a short-throw shifter and upgraded sound system.

It's a stick with 140,000 miles on the clock.

There's not much to add here -- though the buzzword-heavy ad copy is worth a read, I think our seller might have a day job in automotive PR -- so click over and scroll through.

The ask is $24,000.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

  • Urlik Why it isn’t smaller like the CX-7 was compared to the CX-9. The size is why we passed, they need a tweener again.
  • MaintenanceCosts Any plans to build a hybrid with six cylinders?
  • V16 The EV9 looks to be channeling a LEGO design.
  • Calrson Fan I'm sure it's great vehicle if you never leave town. Trying to tow anything substantial like a small camper into a rural area with it would be a complete disaster, even worse in cold weather. But hey it's so affordable.........wait a minute
  • TheEndlessEnigma You charged for 3 hours and got only 43 miles out of it? That's underwhelming.
