All the automotive journalists touted the legendary E39 5-series BMW as the best sport wagon on the market. This BMW has all the luxury and comfort to haul around your family, friends, and stuff while still giving you, the driver, all the fun of a sports car. If you haven’t driven one of these wagons, you should really try them out. They are great to drive!

This affordable 5 series was well taken care of. It was never abused and always serviced/maintained at either the local BMW dealership or some of the top SoCal Independent BMW repair facilities. It has never been in an accident and is in fantastic condition.

This 540 comes fully loaded with almost every option available at the time.
Options include:

Premium Package
Sport Package
Cold Weather Package
Heated Seats
Xenon Headlights
Navigation
Rear side window shades
Steptronic Transmission
CD Changer

However, this was not good enough. The owner of this wagon is a mature local enthusiast who purchased it in 2002 from the local BMW dealership as a CPO car. He immediately took it to Bullet Performance and began the full Dinan upgrades. Ultimately, this was his wife’s car, but he truly enjoyed making it a fun sleeper wagon. He spent nearly $10,000 bringing the car up to S2 specifications (everything but the intake manifold). The enhancements included the following:

M5 Wheels
M5 Front fascia/bumper with fog lights
Dinan Suspension: Single adjustable Koni shocks, strut brace, Dinan springs and sway bars
Dinan Cold Air Intake
Dinan Mass Air
Dinan Throttle Body
Dinan High Flow Exhaust system
Dinan Stage 4 engine management software
Dinan Automatic transmission software
Dinan signature floor mats

Furthermore, money was no expense when it came to maintaining this car. Recently, the car had a full service, new water pump, alternator, all the gaskets (timing case cover and valve covers), and a new rear self-leveling suspension including all new sub frame bushings/mounts. Also, the cooling system has been replaced.

You will be hard pressed to find a better-maintained BMW sport wagon with these tasteful modifications at this kind of value pricing!

All books, keys, and most records included.
