2003 BMW E39 540i Msport
Hey guys, just joined CT recently and had to post my E39 especially since an Imola Red 540 is so rare in Australia. Haven’t ever seen another one where I live :D
Mods: Remapped making 245Kw@crank & 480Nm, Dinan CAI, Bilstein Coilovers, Slotted rotors w/ Hawk HPS+ Pads, Stoptech Braided Lines, Advan Neova ADO8R 235/45 - 255/40, Straight Pipes from cats and a Recaro Pole Position seat about to be installed just waiting for floor mounts from VAC.
Future plans are ordering a set of OZ Futuras 18x10+10 and 18x11+16 and supercharging it. I’ll keep it like that till the engine blows and just swap and LS into it or if I’m lucky enough an S62.

looks awesome, a LS1 would give it the dirty sound this clean car needs.
I know I can’t wait for that day. Especially with an aggressive cam installed
Is it true that the e39 is expensive to maintain?
It can be. It all really depends on previous maintenance and when it was done. The 6 cylinders are more reliable than the v8’s though.
Nice ride man! I suggest that you change the rims to aftermarket ones, then it will look so damn sexy! Love the colour.
I will be later this year. Ordering a set of Oz Futuras 18x10+10 and 18x11+15 w/ 285s all round
Sorry CT wouldn’t let me upload the pic. Your car was too pretty. https://flic.kr/p/ECxLT6
That looks so damn good. Thanks bro
TOP car it’s great 👌👌👌
this is gorgeous!!! any videos?
No but I’ll record some revving when I finish work 😁
Taking after @frazrok. Gorgeous car and couldn’t help myself after I saw what frazrok did. ps your car is now my background
These edits just make it look so clean. I love it. So happy that it’s considered background quality haha 😇
aaaaaand its automatic ;(
I know. But good luck finding a manual here. Compared to the States and Europe you’ll never get one. It’s like winning the lottery.
How the hell are you driving a v8 on your PS?!!!
Power to weight bro
Wait u can drive a V8 on P’s? I know you’re in NSW but in VIC the car can’t be V8… so jealous rn
