This 2006-2010 BMW M5 (E60) and M6 (E63) S85 5.0L V10 engine is a complete OEM dropout assembly with an exceptionally low 55,000 miles, representing one of the most exhilarating and engineering-intensive powerplants ever to leave Bavaria. Derived from BMW’s Formula 1 technology, this high-revving, naturally aspirated masterpiece delivers 500 horsepower and a spine-tingling 8,250 RPM redline, offering an auditory and tactile driving experience that is nothing short of legendary. Its individual throttle bodies, double-VANOS variable valve timing, and forged internals create instantaneous throttle response and a linear power band that is both intoxicating and precise.
This complete dropout includes the engine, all essential accessories, and the factory ECU, ensuring a seamless installation for a direct replacement or an ultimate swap into a project car. It has been meticulously inspected and tested for mechanical integrity, compression, and overall operational readiness. With such low mileage, this unit offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of BMW’s M Division heritage without the typical wear of higher-mileage examples.
Key features include the 5.0L displacement, V10 configuration, Formula 1-inspired architecture, and full OEM completeness. This engine is the holy grail for collectors, BMW purists, and performance enthusiasts seeking to restore an M5 or M6 to its original glory or create a truly unforgettable project build. Ready for professional installation, this S85 promises to deliver an unmatched symphony of power and precision.
