2017 BMW 540i - Is it still worth it in 2024?

[@branditosilva7653]

Owned a BMW for 3 years never heard the turn signal sound before. Thanks for showing me that Easter egg bro

[@crsdyth]

This is made for people thinking about getting one bobble head

[@FdeHennyme]

this was a good one lol

[@DanielChristiansen]

BMW (and Mercedes) just feels refined and high quality. Most US made vehicles is all about the stats vs. price, money is seldomly spent on quality and refinement.

[@RiotSquad]

I love this review I’ve been looking for reviews from real owners I’m stuck between the 440i and 540i

[@crsdyth]

did you end up picking?

What’s the insurance like is it good or bad?

[@natebradley5620]

DOPE BRO. WE APPRECIATE THE VIDEO. LOOKING TO PURCHASE A 2021 this year, I want the traffic jam feature due to me living in NYC. I just hope I can Tune that one as well and it’s not a headache to do a stage 2 and down pipe on it!

[@crsdyth]

Good luck!

How do I get car play I have the same car

[@crsdyth]

@@paultheiling4084 bimmercode is a good option, i used bimmer remote. you’ll need a obd2 to enet cable and a enet to usbc or lighting depending on what phone you have, then when you have the app downloaded you get the option to code it. fairly easy and there’s plenty of guides out there

[@KingKhan-ez3gg]

how about a 2012 a7 s line, supercharged v6, zf8 transmission

[@crsdyth]

haven’t personally driven one but i’m familiar with the 2.0 they’re fairly reliable, and most transmissions from ZF are amazing, i would for sure check the maintenance history and whatever their common issues may be

[@SwipesYT]

would it be better to get a 2017 or 2018??

[@crsdyth]

@@SwipesYT basically identical i don’t think either offer anything else, one year newer is always better though financially speaking it’ll be worth more longer

[@zww7033]

I have a 2017 540i and a 2021 Lexus IS 350, love them both, but I have to say the 5 series build quality is decent at best, I thought the G30 was going to be Lexus GS level quality but I was disappointed with the quality of the BMW, but instead it was slightly better than a F30 to me maybe because the design language is similar. to sum it up the 5 series interior creaks a lot more than the IS and the plastic feels cheap mainly on the dashboard and center console area, I absolutely hate how light the doors feel on the g30, it feels flimsy compared to my Lexus. But I guess you cant have everything, the 540i and is350 both weight about the same even though the 540 is a bigger car, performance wise it is uncomparable even stock my 540i will smoke the is350 with a catback exhaust.

[@imcairoaguero_]

i have this vehicle, so how you get apple carplay?

[@crsdyth]

@@imcairoaguero_ i used bimmer remote and used a laptop with a ethernet to obd2 they have a in-depth video on their website

[@kojor3d]

Bro dissed every car manufacturer 😹

[@mikeyShotDis]

Yoo bro I’m looking at a 2017 540i with 91k miles for 19,500 what you think ?

[@youcangetsum6871]

I’d go for it tbh b58 is pretty reliable 19k isn’t a bad price at all

[@crsdyth]

@@mikeyShotDis 91k isn’t bad just make sure there’s no coolant leaks and see if theirs any debris in the oil other than that it’s just smaller things that go wrong

[@HEISSTROLLY]

I’ll let you review my m3cs when I get it
