1998 e39 540i 6spd with 121,000 miles. The car is in excellent condition. It drives like a BMW should. The interior is super clean. The paint is in great shape, but please see ALL of the pictures. I have taken care to represent this car as honestly as possible. It is not perfect, but it is REALLY NICE. I have recently had the bumpers, left front fender and trunk lid repaired and repainted as they had deep scratches and knicks in them, but it was all parking lot and street parking dings. A solid, great looking car with the included 19" wheels (THERE ARE 5 OF THEM, ONE EXTRA THAT IS BRAND NEW) and it also has a sent of winter tires included. Both sets of tires have lots of life left.
Factory options:
- aspen silver exterior. Gray leather interior
- sport seats
- heated seats
- non-folding rear seats
- sunroof
- remote locking/trunk
- heated steering wheel
- dual zone climate control
- dsp factory stereo
- the usual stuff for a 540. Power steering wheel adjustment, memory seat, windows, etc.
My adds:
- SSR comps 19x9 all around. Conti sport contacts. 255/35/19. Full set includes a band new wheel with brand new Pilot Sport Tire in 245 size. A couple of the wheels have minor dings in them.
- winter sport dunlops on oem staggered wheels with matching spare on factory issued all season tire. The paint is flaking on these wheels, but tread on tires is good.
- iPhone/iPod hookup (specUSA) - does not work perfectly with latest iPhone, but it does play music
- stealth one integrated Valentine 1 Radar detector hookup to dash display (see pictures of dash showing this and wire hanging from behind rearview mirror)
- short shifter
- 2000 M5 hid headlights.
- all new cooling system in 2008
- all dash displays work, only one line of missing pixels on climate control
- subtle tint
- always stored indoors, always premium gas
- no accidents, recent repairs on dings and dents from reputable Great Neck auto body shop
- just replaced a few cracked climate control buttons.
This car is currently registered and insured and it has Michigan plates, but has been in NY for the last 10 years and has always been garaged except for the last couple of months after I replaced it with an SUV for my growing family. I have the title in hand.

BMW NA president says i3 beats Tesla EVs thanks to lighter all-around footprint
Wed, Jan 29 2014Those waiting for a full-out brawl between Tesla Motors head Elon Musk and BMW North America chief Ludwig Willisch will have to wait a bit. For the bloodthirsty, there are signs of some healthy competition and a little bit of green-car sniping between the two automakers. Willisch, speaking at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month and responding to questions about Tesla, noted (without mentioning that company by name) that the production process of the German automaker's i3 plug-in was "greener" than any other. According to Business Insider, Willisch highlighted the fully recyclable materials used to construct the i3 as well as the hydropower used at the carbon fiber plant in Moses Lake, WA. Willisch also noted that the Tesla Model S is "very heavy on the braking. Our car feels just like a normal car. That's a big difference when it comes to driving," Automotive News said in a separate report. The latter model weighs about a third less than the Tesla, though it also has an EV range about a third as big. The BMW executive did allow that the Tesla did make a good proverbial "snowplow," not for its driving characteristics but for its ability to get more people conformable with electric vehicle technology. Musk was asked about the i3 in an August conference call and laughed before noting that the i3 had "room to improve." No word on whether Musk and Willisch will be sending each other Valentine's Day cards next month.

This BMW 2 Series ad has run afoul of Aussie ad watchdogs [w/poll]
Tue, 29 Apr 2014A complaint by an Australian movie-goer has put the brakes on an extended in-theater ad campaign by BMW, and drawn the attention of the country's Advertising Standards Board. According to the anonymous complaint, the ad "portrays an unfavorable message, contrary to safe and sensible driving."
The ASB upheld the complaint, which said the ad for the new M235i showed driving "typical of hoon activity," thanks to the burnouts, dusty drifts and runs up to redline. It's that last one that seems to have gotten the spot in the most trouble, with the ASB acknowledging that even though the car wasn't shown breaking the speed limit, the ad was in violation of a voluntary code of conduct for automotive advertising, according to Australia's Go Auto.
BMW doesn't seem to agree, pointing out that the ad uses creative editing, aggressive camera angles and other filming tricks to "add visual impact."
