Is there a way I can see what a new M5 sold for back in 2001?

I'm the M5 price request poster, I also meant what the dealers actually tried to get for it, including the pack.....Peter

Try Edmunds.com fill out the specs and it will toss a price out at you.

Did you try

?

I will try the Edmunds and kkb........many thanks.............Peter

Try here:

(If link does not work goto and click on "Research" at the top) Original MSRP for that car was $69,400

-Branden

I recall my "trusty" BMW dealer attempting the Jedi mind trick on me at the MSRP, and not one penny less.

Needless to say I did not "go for it".

The Kelly Blue Book lists the List Price that any model originally sold for. This will give you - your friend - a good ballpark figure because KBB won't know a specific car, but it will know the price of the popular options that were available. If KBB says a 2001 M5 sold new for $39,756, then you can be pretty sure that the car you have sold for this price, give or take an insignificant option or two. You can get a copy of the KBB at the library.

I'm not usre if the online expereince will give you the 2001 prices. They will give you today's value, I just am not usre they will have the original price. The actual book has the original sales price. Again, the library is your friend.

Not surprising for an M-car. The first E39 M5 I saw was at Riverside BMW and they had a $25,000 "market adjustment" added to the price. No idea if they got it.
