A new record high ... by a mere 66 units. The E39 M5 sold 20,482 units world-wide. And here in the U.S. the E39 M5 outsold the E60 M5 (9,198 to 8,800).

Marketing failure? Did BMW miss the mark with the over-technical E60 M5? Maybe. But I, for one, am glad that the engineers were in charge of the E60 M5 and not the marketers. (Unlike today ... 5 series GT?)
