Hi folks, I'm selling my 2001 BMW 540i; this is a post-facelift E39 with a 4.4L M62TUB V8 paired to a 6-speed manual transmission. I have kept the car been meticulously maintained at Bavarian Professionals in Berkeley, CA, and have kept it garaged during ownership.
I consider the car to be in excellent mechanical condition; I had a myriad of service performed amounting to ~$5,000 upon purchasing the car. Many essential repairs have been performed in the past 3k miles, including:
- Clutch replaced 3k miles ago
- Water pump replaced 3k miles ago
- Auxiliary water pump replaced last month
- Radiator replaced last month
I have a binder full of records verifying all such repairs.
I had a Dynavin N6 head unit installed for about $1,000; this means that the car can play music from an iPhone/Bluetooth despite being a 2001 car. It even works with the steering wheel buttons, and also has a built-in navigation system.
I also consider the car's interior and exterior to be in excellent condition. Three of the rims were in quite rough shape when I bought the car, so I had them repaired and repainted. Some of the rubber trim around the windshield was crumbling due to age, so I replaced it entirely. There are no major scratches/blemishes on the car. If you look closely you can see: a scratch on the left rear door & above the passenger wheel well, and a ding on the hood; these are small enough that they're not visible unless you're up close looking for them. By all means, request any pictures you'd like, or ask me to FaceTime you a full tour of the car; I'm quite confident in the condition of the car, and am more than happy to show every square inch of it inside and out.
The exterior color is Anthracite (a grayish color with a hint of blue), while the interior is gray. I recently replaced the shift knob, as the original was showing signs of age. I installed new cupholders, and a cellphone mount with a charger.
Miles: 88,708
