Not to mention, the side mirrors are more rounded than a standard E39. Though those could have also been replaced.

Of course I wouldn't be making this argument. The difference is rather large, including the lack of foglights. I'm done though. My Monday is probably as sh*tty as yours.

Not to start a war.. and only because it is Monday and I still do not want to be working.. but what on the front would allow you to determine that this is an M5? Besides anything that cannot be customized?? It would be easier to change a standard E39 front bumper to an M5 bumper than the exhaust system..
Would you really be making this argument if there was an M5 badge at the back?

Yes, but it could be customization. Unless I see a front shot, it's rather hard to believe that this is an M5.

Agreed.. only the M5 E39 has quad exhausts.. even the 540i had single.

It's just that there's no M badge, and the rims are different. If there was a front shot, I'd be able to determine that.

Yea this is the M5, none of the non M cars have quad exhaust tips, the only way is having an after market mod on it but that's pretty rare.

Only pic I have. Only M5's have the dual exhaust with four outlets for the E39 generation of the 5-Series, so I'm sure this is a M5.

arent the exhausts more middle at the m-models? and the back-bumper next the exhausts looks in my eyes strange?

That can't be an M5.
