Smile Just bought a E39 528i

Hello All!! I frequent the 911 forum and know all of the ins and outs of Porsches, but I just bought a 99 528i as a daily ride. Is there anything I need to know, or no-brainer things I should do to it right away?? It is freaking gorgeous, Silver sport package with those oh-so-cool BBS wheels.

Nothing special that I know of.

I'd check all the standard inspection items and change all the fluids that you don't have documented changes on.

They seem very low maintenance. No timing belts or valve adjustments. A lot easier then a 911 or 944.
