2003 BMW 540i

Featuring a 4.4L V8, the E39 540i is a hidden gem in BMW’s lineup and this one sports a proper three-pedal manual. It has had a complete suspension refresh along with some upgraded coilovers to make it handle better than new, and the cooling system has also seen some attention to keep it running strong. The muffler has also been removed to give it a louder voice to sing with.

    Reported Accidents
    One or more accidents have been found on record through police reports or insurance claims.

    Accidents usually aren’t deal-breakers, but they can affect the condition and value of the vehicle. We always recommend Carfax and AutoCheck reports followed by a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) - even if there are no accidents listed (as some accidents go unreported).
