gdizzle Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 http://volvospeed.com/vs_forum/index.php?showtopic=80729that's what happened to the SRXand my wife will probably end up driving it alot, and it's surprisingly snappy for the 2.5I am pretty tempted though to sell my S40 and pick up an 01-03 540iI thought the 2.5 was a turd, it's even worse in a 525iT. Nice overall car though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViperVette Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 hmmm... E39 M5 has to be my favorite sedan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serge Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 E39s are some of my favorite cars. Still some of the best looking headlights ever. Good thing you got it with Xenons and the CELIS LED tails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serge Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 E39 look so much better than BMW's current offerings.While the E39 is gorgeous, I have to disagree. Some of the new models (E60 M5) are just plain hot. Not to mention the interiors are amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echristodo Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 Car is hotter than a side of beef on a rotiserrie! I dig the color too... I have been thinking about halking my T5 for a 530i for a while now, but I think that I would be sad about the power difference after the initial new car satisfaction wore off.

theForgottenone Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 The car look hot with angel light and HID. You would think they slapped on a better wheel for 5series vs their 90s style BBS style on 15" wheel.I'm always afraid of maintenance bill on older BMW.

AnthonyR Posted August 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 Not too worried, on the maintenance, as I do EVERYTHING myself. Remember, I was one of the very first to do a manual swap in the 850.I'm pretty tempted now to sell my S40 and pick up a 540 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Che'_Moderator Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 E39 look so much better than BMW's current offerings.Which is why I got mine before the body style change. Its always for sale for the right price. Atspeed is also selling one. If you guys want a deal on it let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you guys want a deal on it let me know.Will they accept my girlfriend + Cash???I have also found that you can find a CPO'd E39 on ebay for less money than what you would pay locally, with less miles and a year or two newer.
