Since I drive allot I wanted a comfortable car. The Boxsters were tons of fun but too small for me for an everyday car.. A 911 would work but would need a second car.. So till I can afford 2 cars, I went with a '01 530 with sport pack.

Before


I just put 18's on it, had the windows tinted, V1 Hardwired. I think it came out pretty good.

After

 

Looks great Brian.. stock sport suspension? how's the ride

 

yep, suspension is stock.... rides great!

 

nice brian, great car!

 

nice car. i always loved the older 5 series
....congratz.

 

looks very clean! how many miles do you drive?

 

Very nice. The E39s are some of the best looking BMWs on the road especially compared to the newers ones.

 

Very nice. We've got an '03 530i with the sport pack. Love it, and classic proportions, with a real trunk.

 

nice car. any dinan upgraded planned? btw, if you get rid of a front plate there is a bumperplugs site

i love old 5er. i think if you lookup "best bang for the buck" in the dictionary it was see "see 530 model from 5-series"

moen blue fog lights, drop front plate and dinan it

 

I had a '88 535is, '78 320i sport pack, E36 325ic. I worked at a BMW dealership in IL and always loved the E39. Im not a big fan of the new body 5. I just wished the E39 M5 came in an auto trans. I can't believe I said that but driving stick shift in traffic all the time sucks.

Jan, no Dinan upgrades or any power anything really planned, its not going to make much more power with all the upgrades available... I hate the front plate too, but hate dealing with the stupid cops and getting pulled over for no front plate.. (which is happening all over locally lately) would bring up the tinted windows.. and I was probably speeding... bla bla bla

 

Beautiful example, and those rims go with the car perfectly! Good luck with it.

 

Very nice Brian! An e39 530i is one of the best DD's ever!

Supercharge it Brian. Don’t puss out!

 

nah....

Im trying to replace it with a 996tt

 

Nice Brian
