I'm looking to pick up a nice pre-owned 540i sport with low miles.
What should I look for? Any things to check for besides accidents and normal tire kicking?
I've been searching the net, but I can't find a nice categorical list of differences btw the model years of 540i sports. I'm mainly looking at the 1999-2000 models, it seems the 2001s with the angel eyes and body colored trim are a bit over 40k (which I would rather), this money I am not willing to spend on a pre-owned in this economy.....
Anyway, if any of you 540 gurus could enlighten me as to what wheels or options were to be had and what was different in each model year from 1999-2001 (anything and everything) it would be most appreciated. Any suggestions are welcome.
Is this BMW CPO business worth my time? What years did that nice blue come out, I think it was called topaz blue? How reliable has the nav system been and is it worth getting? What things came in the sport that a premium package does not have? Is this a reliable daily driver?
Cheers,
Salah
