THE OVERVIEW
Offered for an appreciating new owner. . now with a lowered reserve. . . is this clean rust-free modern classic 1998 BMW E39 540i sedan! Driven about 11,000 miles per year since new, this 23 year-old E39 sedan sports a 282 horsepower V8 engine mated to the factory 6 speed manual transmission with stopping power provided by four wheel disc brakes with ABS anti-lock brakes. Other features include style 32 wheels with excellent rubber, electric windows and glass moonroof, HEATED electric leather sport seats, cruise control, factory stereo, cupholders and more. It is being sold with clear and clean California title and current 2022 registration. THE BODY AND TRIM The exterior of this accident-free 1998 BMW is in good 99.9% rust-free condition overall with a nice overall shine to the paint finish with a smattering of rock nicks, scratches and other cosmetic blemishes! THE INTERIOR As I hope is articulated in the photos, the interior of this non-smoker 540i is in excellent good, original condition overall with most all gauges, controls and accessories in excellent working order. There airbag light is illuminated, there are some pixels inop on the gauge cluster and radio screen, the AC is currently not blowing cold [it may need a charge or component replacement though the heat and heated seats work great], there is a bit of crunching sound rolling back the sunroof, and there is some minor wear and tear inside the car. Overall this is one still solid and comfortable cockpit! THE OVERVIEW This "98 BMW E39 sedan starts and runs well with excellent torquey acceleration, fairly smooth shifting transmission, smooth steering and confident braking and suspension with moderate wear to the bushings. 23 years later, this is a still satisfying car to drive while yielding 25 miles per gallon on the open road at 2,000 rpms!
