Alpine White On Black
Mileage: 138k
Title: Clean Georgia

This 2003 BMW E39 540i M-Sport, which is number #365 out of 1,265 M-Sport models imported into the US for the 2003 model year only, the last year the E30 was produced. Of those 1,265 produced, only 12 were made in this color combination and of those, fewer in manual transmission (I could not get the exact number).

?The factory M-Sport package consisted of the following:
M5 front and rear bumpers (rear valence different to allow for single exhaust)
M5 Steering wheel
M-Sport Suspension II (with M5 shocks)
M door sill trim
Staggered 18” M-Parallel wheels
Anthracite (black) headliner (only came on M5 and M-sport models)
High gloss black shadow line window trim
White direction indicator lights
Sport seats

?This particular car came with the following dealer options:
Rear folding seats
Heated front seats
Universal garage remote control
On board computer
Deleted rear spoiler
Headlight washers
Rain sensing wipers
Xenon headlights
Ski pass?

Upgrades:
BC coilover suspension, fully adjustable ride height and dampening
3M titanium vinyl wrapped interior trim (reversible if you do not like it)
High temp heat painted valve covers
LED light license plate lights & quarter panel indicator lights
3M 35% window tint
Osram D2S CBI headlight bulbs
Royal Purple transmission fluid
Matte black kidney grills
?Some minor issues with the car:
SRS light goes on and off intermittently (faulty passenger occupancy sensor, however airbags still function)
Spare tire is not a M-Parallel (I purchased it like this)
Battery in key fob is going out
Pixels displaying info on gage cluster go out intermittently (happens on all E39 models, can be permanently repaired)


This car is completely rust free and has been garage kept, smoker free the entire time I owned it (and all previous owners from what I gathered).  There is absolutely no rust on this car and only shows minor wear with typical rock chips, bumper scuffs, minuscule dings and lightly worn leather.  This car has all original body panels and has never been wrecked.  I had the front bumper replaced and painted with OEM parts due to hairline cracks from a BMW dealership with all the records proving it.

I have some maintenance records going back to 2010 for routine maintenance.  I had the valve cover gasket leak as the only issue with the car the entire time I owned it, which I has since replaced.  Everything works mechanically on the car; a/c blows cold, brakes are strong and firm, clutch engages, heated seats, motor is strong and torquey, sun roof, great tread on tires, suspension is tight with no squeaks or rattles, seat motors etc.  I am a huge BMW enthusiast who have owned multiple BMWs before and took great pride in owning this vehicle.  It is a rush to drive with the insane amount of torque this engine has.  I constantly get compliments on this car wherever I go.  Here is your chance to own a timeless design of the BMW E39 5 series without having to deal with the hassle of owning a M5.  Mileage may go up a few hundred miles as I still occasionally drive it.

Buyer will pay for shipping or coordinate to pick it up.

Meet the inventor of the BMW 3 Series wagon

Sat, 11 May 2013

It's hard to imagine, but once upon a time, there were only two BMW 3 Series variants: the coupe and sedan. Back before gran coupes, convertibles and yes, even touring models were available, buyers could only get their 3 Series fix if it came with two or four doors and a fixed roof. Back in the mid '80s, BMW engineer Max Reisbock was having some trouble fitting his whole family into his four door. Rather than suck it up and buy a van, he picked up a wrecked 3 Series and got to cutting in a buddy's garage. Months later, he had the very first 3 Series Touring ever built.
At first, he kept the the car to himself, using it to haul friends and family around, but he eventually showed it off to his friends at work. When the BMW executives found out about his project, they called him up to take a closer look. After putting an eyeball on the car, they took it, copied his design, made a few tweaks and quickly rolled out the first production 3 Series Touring. How's that for validation? Check out the video below for Reisbock's story.

2019 Volvo V60 vs. wagon competitors: How they compare on paper

Thu, Feb 22 2018

The next-gen Volvo V60 was finally revealed this week. The outgoing model has been on sale since 2011, getting a few minor updates along the way. The new model is based off Volvo's Scalable Platform Architecture that underpins other models like the XC90 and XC60 crossovers and V90 wagon. The V60 will launch with two engines, with a powerful hybrid coming sometime down the line. Since the last V60 hit the market, Audi, Buick and BMW have all released their own flavor of wagon. Like Volvo, BMW sells a traditional sedan-based model. Audi and Buick's wagons are both high-riding models with some very slight off-road pretense, much like Volvo's Cross Country models. We don't have details on the upcoming V60 Cross Country, but, even when accounting for ground clearance, the V60, BMW 3 Series Sport Wagon, A4 Allroad and Buick Regal TourX have a lot of overlap. Check out the specs breakdown below. Discover and compare other wagons and crossovers with our Car Finder and Compare tools. Engines, transmissions and drivetrains Out of the four wagons, the new V60 is the only one that offers two-wheel drive and a hybrid variant. The base V60 T5 uses a 250-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter inline four and sends power to the front wheels. Stepping up to the V60 T6 nets buyers an additional 66 horsepower thanks to a twincharged — supercharged and turbocharged — 2.0-liter and all-wheel drive. A T8 model that uses a 390-horsepower plug-in hybrid powertrain will be available soon. All V60s use an eight-speed automatic. The Audi, BMW and Buick are all powered by 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-fours. Additionally, the 3 Series has a 2.0-liter turbo diesel. All three wagons have standard all-wheel drive. The BMW and Buick use an eight-speed automatic, while the Audi sends power through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. As base engines go, there's a four-horsepower difference between the most and least powerful models, though the Buick wins out on torque. The V60 T6 matches the Regal TourX's torque figure and trounces every competitor's horsepower rating. The V60 T8 packs more power and torque than any of the competition. Cargo and interior space The outgoing V60 was on the small side for a wagon. This new model rectifies that a bit, though its 48.2 cubic-feet of cargo space with the second-row folded is still substantially smaller than the competition.

M-thusiast pops the question at BMW Welt

Tue, 02 Sep 2014

We've seen all manner of marriage proposals over the years, but our favorites, of course, revolve around cars. One guy proposed to his girlfriend at a traffic stop, another during an autocross event, while yet another got dozens of Mazda MX-5 owners together to spell "Marry Me?" in Miatas. This latest proposal, however, put the M in Marriage as only a BMW enthusiast could.
While visiting BMW Welt in Munich, Bachir from Lebanon rolled out in a new blue M3 and got down on one knee in front of the gathered crowds to pop the question to Layal, his girlfriend of one year.
We'll let you watch the clip for yourself to see how it went, but suffice it to say that she was delighted. The couple plan to drive to the church in a procession of M cars for what promises to be a high-octane ceremony in their home country.
