[@ademturan7137]

Not gonna lie but the E39 is a fkn legend. My father owned a 540i back then and that V8... bro... that was something else. I was young. Maybe 5 or 6 years old but I will NEVER forget the Sound that Monster did when he was pulling in the tunnels. Even when an M5 appeared, the 540i stood its ground and screamed like nothing else. It dusted Porsches left and right, decimated the competition. Nowadays my father drives a M3 E92. However, its not the same as the E39 M5/540i. Those were on a different level. Whole other level.

My wife had a 523iA from 1996, it was a hand me down car that her father bought new and then it went through years of his use and two of her sisters had used it before here. In 2014 we bought here a E250 4-matic to replace the old BMW, the 523 had 275000km on it back then and a full service record from the same dealer that it was originally bought from. The car looked a bit rough and had some minor rust etc. we desided to keep it and took it to a shop that fixed the rust issues and did a full repaint and I changed all the emblems, lights etc. Now it looks like a brand new E39 and we use it during the summer, it is a great car :) Glacier green with a funky greenish velvet interior.

Fortunatly i´ve got one myself, not in the best shape but i´m working on it. these 2,5l M52 non TU straight sixes are simply the best engines ever made for the E39/E36. i did a motor swap after my old b20 kicked the bucket, after we found a low milage b25 i couldn´t be happier. Yes i also know the excellence of a good b28, i owned one myself a few years ago but i can´t say that i really miss the extra 23 hp, the b25 is strong enough, it has at leat enough power for all driving conditions and it´s running more smooth than the 28i. the 28i is a bit more rough, definitly a good engine too but i go for the b25.

[@chasermalloy7406]

Many journalists still insist the E39 is not just the best BMW, but the best car ever. I actually agree. I have many cars of many type including 6 E39s of various type and 3 E60s I've had my first E39 for 19 years. I resisted going to E60 because I hated the styling after the E39. Only got my first one years ago. There are a few annoying things about the E39 as others have mentioned. The interior door handles and buttons on the climate unit are both an annoyingly poor designs. The other thing I hate is the plastic buckets under the interior door handles where the painted finish comes off leaving them looking like a piece of tupperware. Overall though the best cars I've had among Jags, Porsches, Mercs. Wonderful ride in the standard E39 and very good handling for a car with such soft ride. My favorite is a 2003 530i which is dressed like a 530I m but standard suspension. It has incredibly nice ride even though it has 18 inch Msport wheels. I have fitted M5 seats which are perfect and I love it. Best car I've ever had. You can buy E39s for near nothing these days and anyone who hasn't experienced the cars should at least manage to sample one. Also much easier to live with that later models. Everything you do or change or replace on an E60 needs to be reprogrammed. Complete PITA

[@Chris-cy3uq]

@@SomeNormalRomanian sunroof only looks nice and clean, nothing else. In summer it's pointless to have it open because air escapes, the fuel economy worsens when it's open, it makes noise, it might leak or break and then you have to repair it or replace it, it adds weight to the top of the car which puts it's center of gravity higher, it decreases the structural rigidity of the car. But on an E39 it just looks so clean and kind of completes the design.. It's not a sportscar, it's not an economy car, it's not an insanely reliable car, so if you are going for one you might as well get it with the best look - full options with the full M-Package..
