Hi all,

Here are some pictures. It's a 2001 E39 535i Sport in Imola Red :D I love it to bits, and it's a massive improvement on my last BMW 523i SE!

I wanted the 540i Sport, but they are very rare to find 2nd hand in Imola Red, and that at the end of the day, was what I wanted! To be honist, I would have settled for a 528i or 530i Sport in Imola Red, but this 535 came at the right price, so I did the deal!

She's still dirty in the pics, so will get better pics up when I've washed and waxed it!

An Eisenmann exhaust system will be next on the shopping list soon! :)

Cheers

Chris

Stunning matey. Great colour combo and great base car. As Nick has said, Eisenmann will be one of the best you can do to her... :cool: :cool: :cool:

Cheers for all the kind words!

Eisenmann, do I go for the Race or Sport level?

Other mods.....well, I'd like some new wheels for her. Maybe a chassis mod, like Eibach anti-roll bars, and a slight drop. Wouldn't mind some CCFL's, too!

Hmmm, which wheels? :D

Oh, did I mention I'm thinking superchargers :D

Looks sweet, a drop and new rims should do just the trick.

Guys, I have a set of 18" M-Parallel's in the garage which I took off the 523 before I sold it. They need a bit of a refurb, though. I'm not sure what to do with them :o

Congrats mate...

E39'er superb looking car. I was in the same shoes as you at one stage but still couldn't find a 540i sport in silver. In the end settled for 528i but I sure am having fun with modding....

Drive same fella and have fun. E39's are the best looking in that range 97' ~ 2000
