  • Since the MKV got totaled...

    E39 528i touring Alpineweiss with the sport/M package that has been very well maintained.

    Gotta say, the 100 mile drive back home was a much better ride then in the mkv. It is so comfortable, the cabin is amazingly quiet, and the amount of amenities with this package is insane for it's age.

    Plans are to keep it stock for a while an enjoy it. The previous two owners took great care of it, I want to keep that going. Cooling system and trans were just serviced, the car drives great for being 15 years old.

    The only things that are not stock I believe are the DDM headlights and the magnaflow muffler.

    Sorry for the lack of pictures

        Is that a different bootlid? Car looks awsome none-the-less. Clean as a whistle.

        Edit: nevermind its the same just looks different from an angle where I cant see the rear wiper to well.

          I'm not sure, I got the original lights too so I can snap a picture later. The corner color of the light seems to make a huge difference.

            they are DDM/DJAuto headlights. Reps of the 01-03 HELLA euro style e39 headlights with the clear corners vs Amber. Clean e39 for sure OP! I hope one day I can get back into another after totaling the last one =/

              Hey, I'm not sure about what they are modeled after since I am new to the whole platform, but they look similar.

                Nice Ride! Mine looked exactly like that (only Titan Silber) when I bought it. Is yours a manual? Sport or comfort seats? Do you have the sliding loading deck in the rear hatch? I loved mine. ***** to get rid of it, so much so I almost bought it back!!

                Edit:
                Sooooo, you can't say "*****" or any version thereof, but cursing profusely is ok?!

                progress IS a slow process

                      Yeah SW is weird with the word h a t e .

                      Its auto (Fiance made me get auto since shes sick of all my manual cars). Sport Seats and it does have the sliding rear deck, but it is unfortunately stuck at the moment. The PO said when someone was detailing the car they went and laid on it and it won't open now lol.

                      Not sure, but it possibly may be I haven't noticed. The PO had a roof rack attached.

                          LOL you are exactly correct. I live in that general area.

                          I hope to see you around, what are you driving?

                            BTW yes it is slightly lol, and now I can't help but see it all the time. Thanks a lot!!!

                            The previous owner stated that he had a bike attached to the top and pulled into an area that knocked the bike off.

                            That probably caused it.
