Maybe I'm missing something, but wagons came with ski bags? It's on both the 528it and 540it charts. Can someone please fill me in on how WAGONS came with a ski bag?
'98 M3 5spd - '03 540it 6spd M-Sport
Was there ever an option for a towing package? I stumbled upon a post by a previous owner displaying the "towing package" on my 540it, but when I put my vin through a decoder there seems to not be an option for a towing package
There is a hitch option, but I don’t know if it came factory installed to the US.
I can’t seam to find my car on charts, I’m I reading wrong? I have a 1999 540i wagon Biarritz Blue Metallic, with Sport Package, heated front seats, Xenon Headlights, just interested in how many where made. Thanks
The chart isn't that hard to decipher.
95 biarritz blue, of which 47 were sports with black trim.
So right there your one of 47.
43 sports had style 32 wheels, but that could include the ones with black interiors.
And beige interior, were in 41 or the 95 blue, but that's not breaking down which were sport.
You can drill down farther if you have a particular option, but it's hard to say how many were exactly like yours.
No info on 525iT? We are unloved as usual.....WAaaaaa
by the time 2003 rolled in the X5 sucked all the volume out of sales.

As the owner of your 525's twin (only no heated seats), it's just a matter of getting doabarrelroll properly motivated to do it.
Just think of how many silver 01-03 525's there are.
I think there was over 10,000 525 wagons on top of 528,540 ones

My bad 528 and 525 were10,000
Hey! I have a 2003 525 wagon in titan silver.... thought I was special, ok, move on, there’s nothing to see here.
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
When I look at the chart it says 0 for Sport Package for my color " Biarritz Blue Metallic", Car as listed on Window sticker...1999 540i sport wagon, Biarritz Blue Metallic, Sand Beige Leather, Sport Package ( 17 x 8 Radial style wheels, 235/45R-17 perf Tires, M sport steer wheel, Sport Suspension, shadowline trim), heated front seats, Xenon Headlights. Thanks for your help..
Either you are reading the wrong chart, as the first chart is for 528 5 spd, or you are reading the correct chart incorrectly.
The only place where it has a 0 for biarritz blue is M sport, which is correct, as you do not have an M sport.
Look again, still 1 of 47 blue with sport.
If you're selling, people will want it.
If you're keeping, drive it and love it.
Not enough room for past/present garage
Hey, I am pretty sure mine is rather rare, due to the fact that it has the Full leather option, probably a one of one in its current configuration (GW45916) but I am making this into a dream car for myself and building up a bit of documentation from its origins as a German official car in Hamburg to its setup now. I don’t know if you are able to do a similar spreadsheet for 530dt's but I would be absolutely in awe of you if you did it! If you built up a list or showed me how to do this I would be eternally grateful.

Chiming in here to request that the 525iT info gets calculated!
Maybe I missed it but is there a breakout of how many of the 528 and 525 tourings were delivered with 5 speed manuals?
