1999 e39 BMW 528i 5 speed m sport
It's time to get rid of my e39. I believe that I am the third owner of the vehicle. Originally it was purchased in South Carolina and I bought it in Georgia then towed it on a full car trailer to Las Vegas. The car has been super reliable partly due to the meticulous maintenance that has been done throughout my time of ownership. I got it at 115,000 miles, currently, it has 171,000 miles. It has been garaged almost all of its life with me (I work at home so the only time it hit the sun was on the road).
I have done my best to restore the car to its former glory starting with the engine, ensuring that all vacuum leaks have been fixed and prevented. On 7/25/16 the car was vacuum tested at BMW Only here in Las Vegas and it passed with flying colors. All of the undercarriage plastic has been added (previous owners just removed it all I guess). it even has all 5 jack pads with all the wheel well spoilers. It also has no check engine lights and the car will come with a peake reader to verify.
The car has new window tint that has a lifetime warranty, documented with receipts.
Exterior Condition: 7
Interior Condition: 9
Here's a list of things that I have done to the car and I have a full folder of receipts from myself and the previous owner for proof.

Adding more information:
- When the shifter bushings were replaced, I had the e60 short shifter mod installed.
- I've removed the 6 disc changer and replaced with the grom bluetooth/phone adapter. phone and bluetooth work great and works with steering wheel controls.
- The previous owner cut out the ski hole slot, so I put a square sub inside of there with a 1200 watt amp. If the next owner doesn't want it or doesn't like it, I still have the stock carpeting for inside of the trunk and the stock subwoofers that work perfectly.
- Fuel pump was recently replaced, I also have an extra pump that is in good condition to go with it. I replaced it chasing down a problem that I thought was fuel related, turns out it was a really bad misfire in coil #2, fixed. So now the next owner gets a spare pump also.
This car seriously runs awesome, pulls as hard as it should and is still very fun to drive.
This MUST be sold by now surely? Great buy. Seriously tempted otherwise, my oldest is now driving and this would be perfect....
