BMW E39 540I 286HP [ V8 SOUND ] POV DRIVE ON GERMAN AUTOBAHN NO LIMIT

[@gitaarmovies2003]

E39 is arguably the best 5 series ever made. Golden era of BMW

[@TSunderground]

its not the best, the best 5er is e34 and the biggest bmw maniacs knowing this

[@gitaarmovies2003]

@@TSunderground I disagree, while I think the E34 is very cool and good looking, the E39 has the perfect balance between old school and technology. Still has safety features that can save you, but won't interrupt you on normal spitrited driving, like so many cars nowadays. It's still pretty easy to work on. It also has more power, better handling and brakes.

[@TSunderground]

​@@gitaarmovies2003 true words but it is not the best 5 series, maybe for your taste, in term of times we seeing this i have both e34 and e39, e34 is the last true 5 series and this is not my words this is the word of the bmw community

[@Xero285]

@@TSunderground In Germany you know the e39 is the best 5 Series, as Jonathan just said. The amount of e39 with way over 300.000km on the trip is astonishing (especially the 528i and 530i models). E34 are rarely to be seen because of poor rust precautions done by bmw.

[@TSunderground]

@@Xero285 i know a lot of people with 500 000 + km e34s ;) and also seen a lot of rusty e39 here e34 is rare becasue is model from 1988 dont forget this and these day still on the road the last true 5 series as i said before you cant beat the facts

They are not slow, would be a little faster even if un-limited but not by much. M5's when unlimited claws very close to 300 km/h

[@PowerslideSWE]

Eh... not really. See more w210 than 5 series today. 210 is bulletproof compared to E39 and horrific electrical shit

[@SEC420]

@@TheM275 ofcourse you see more of them. They were barely driven in comparison to the e39 because the e class then was mainly an older folk car because of its classic and somewhat dated looks. Whereas the E39 was elegant, sporty and a machine in the driving facette, thus we have a lot of e39s with 300,000+Kms. . I've driven both, the exterior remains a subject of personal choice. But the sheer driving skill, I'm sorry to disappoint you, the e39 had no opponent for a very long time. Most of the w210 have a maximum of 200,000kms. You'd be better off having them at a museum than driving them. Goldzahn is right, it really was no competition, at all.

[@dikkefuck123456789]

@@SEC420 I dont agree. I have owned both cars. 3 w210's and 2 E39 and 1 E38. the styling is personal but the interior is nicer on the BMW's thats for sure. All my Merc's had rust issues while my BMW's had zero rust issues. But engine wise. Those merc's were bulletproof. I had a 540i with nothing but engine issues. (timing chain/oil consumption/worst coolant system ever/head gaskets made of cheese) My 728i/528i were a bit better but still alot of engine problems compared to the Mercedes. I had a E430 and a E320 I6 and still own a CLK 320 V6. I have never ever had engine/transmission problems with them. Just rust issues wich Mercs of the 1995 to 03 era are notorious for. But still I miss my BMW nevertheless. Great elegant car and still timeless.

[@s3rg3i]

The E39 is undoubtedly one of the best proportioned, designed, and engineered sedans produced. The 540i variant (with an M Tech package), possibly the best combination of performance/design/reliability/value. Awesome car! It is definitely on my wish list of cars to own.

[@nikolaypetrov2554]

And still this disign was rushed because of the e-class and it was done in a very short period of time. Still a very good looking car even today.

[@8-CylinderVelocity]

One of the most beautiful creations by BMW. The E39 is a fantastic piece of German engineering, luxury and class! That 4.4L V8 is amazing, the interior looks great for it's time and the styling is just out of this planet! Germans surely perfected their greatest creation ever!

[@WekkelEkkel]

It's closer to 300 bhp. Probably underrated to keep a distance in the books to the 7 series V12 engine

[@nokia3210fuck]

I can tell you that I met a 540 i sitting in my E36 3 3,2 (321 HP) and the 540 was just as quick.

[@nokia3210fuck]

By the way thhe 328 has thhe same issue as you mentioned. The 325 has 192 HP and the 328 "only" 193 HP where its real horsepower is closer to 220 but in order to keep the distance to the 286 HP M3 3,0 they only listet it as having 193 hp.

[@darx3351]

To everyone wondering in the comments, yes these are underrated from factory. Factory states 286hp (engine) and 440Nm of torque. Real numbers are around 305hp (engine) and 440-460nm of torque. Also acceleration times should be faster in a manual one since the older automatic gearboxes tend to eat power + shifting speed is slower if you can properly shift a manual. I hope this helps!

Great video, gives a good impression. Few days ago i went autobahn cruising with my e38 740i. What i love about these engines is the power above 180kmh. When the 4cyl engines are out of breath these engines / cars (when healthy engines / chassis) feel like they are settling in and are eager for more. I really enjoyed pushing him to the limiter and cruise relaxed at around 230kmh. With double glass wind noise is nihil.

@@tlustejmicin Too right ! - The E39 BMW's always look so fabulous. I have just fitted the 2001 facelift fiber optic tail lights to my 1997 535i which had those dated orange indicator front and rear lights. (I had to use a small round file to enlarge some of the existing holes for each light for the new tail lights to fit the pre 2001 E39), as they changed the position of the screw holes slightly just to be awkward ! The tail lights also have their two light driver modules which are located in the tire well and are secured in place with galvanized steel brackets that are held in place by the spare wheel retaining rod and a 12mm nut. I have also fitted those great looking angel eye head lights with the yellow rings which come on whenever the side lights are switched on and they make the front of my E39 look so much nicer now ! I've got the clear side repeater indicators to fit, but I don't have the orange bulbs for them yet, and the ones that came out of my old side indicator repeaters are clear yellow wedge bulbs, so I have to get a couple of orange coloured wedge/push fit bulbs of the correct wattage and I should be OK. Take care bro and enjoy your E39 man :-)

A little fun fact or maybe (in case you don't know) a little tip for the 540 owners out there: When you hit the top speed lift your foot off the throttle just a little bit.. it will upshift into 5th gear and you can "cruise" with 250kmh at ~5000rpm😅

@@johnsilver5398 Das mit den Massagesitzen stimmt aber für welche Mehrkosten? Und Heckrollos sind einfach geil weil manche Leute einfach nicht ihr Licht einstellen können oder ultra helles Bi-Xenon, Xenon oder LED Licht haben.

[@derMaggus]

Das sind Aktivsitze. Keine Massagesitze. Dennoch ein wirklich unglaublich gutes Modell. Hatte selbst diverse- auch 540i 6G - und fahre aber aktuell E38 740i.

Legend

[@TheCrankshaftRotator]

Schade um den schönen 540i E39. Der bietet normalerweise das perfekte Understatement.

[@dergase8654]

Der BMW ist noch abgeregelt. Bei 250kmh vom analogen Tacho, fährt er eigentlich gerade 235kmh im gps Tacho den man im Geheimmenü findet. Außerdem fehlte noch ein Gang da der Fahrer ja nur Vollgas fuhr. Bei Vollgas schaltet das Auto erst bei 260kmh (gps) in den 5.Gang. Bei 248kmh (gps) ist also Schluss. V-Max aufheben und nochmal fahren. Dann macht er richtig Spaß

[@filippat1860]

Ich fahre selbst einen 540i, bei mir schaltet er bei 240km/h laut Tacho in den 5.gang. und das wenn er 250km/h laut Tacho hat 235gps fährt kann ich auch nicht bestätigen. Ich habe ein Navi drine das die momentane Geschwindigkeit anzeigt natürlich GPS. bei 250 km/h Tacho war ich bei 244km/h GPS.

[@Jan-ss2gq]

@@filippat1860 ok. Seltsam das es so unterschiedlich ist. Das Fahrzeug im Video fährt aber nur im 4.Gang. Weil er abgeregelt ist so wie es im Video aussieht. Wenn er das Gas ein wenig zurück nehmen würde würde er hoch schalten.

I love this car but e60 is the best combo of power and technology.

[@andreasponty9419]

4 gear box?

[@Blindman875]

My brother has an automatic M-Sport. Thing is a beast. I have a '98 540i/6 pre TU. Style 19's are growing in me. We have not yet competed to see who's is better. Honestly, we don't care. They're both awesome cars.

[@imnotcxner]

[@povdrivegermany7080]

Good question. I had searched for no copyright car music on KZbin there are more songs like this

[@miljororforsprakpartiet290]

Red needles and no M cluster?

6.gang schalter mal bitte testen!!!

[@soundseeker63]

Amazing car. Like a lot of BMWs it seems the car runs out of gearing before it runs out of power - it could go faster still with a slightly taller final drive! (maybe the 6-speed manual version is slightly better in that respect?). I've had 3 E39s (all 6cyl models) but have always lusted after those 540is....still do in fact! Got an E60 now and it drives great but, I must admit, it doesn't feel as well made or luxurious as the E39s did. They felt high end even in faily basic spec.

[@Moznaksou]

Super voiture la 540i e39 👍👍👍

E 34 540 I is a legend a sort of unicorn but E39 is the ultimate and last edition of a real car MANUEL GEAR BOX
