Mark 178 Report post Posted January 25, 2009 Was waiting for someone to post this.... and I always kinda knew it would be you Simon! Looks hot in black. I'd be more than happy to check the car out if anyone is keen to buy! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Simon* Report post Posted January 25, 2009 Ha! What can I say - do love the E34 M5's Wouldn't trade mine for a 3.6 but still awesome cars. Proper cars like this one deserve to get discussed here too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazyarab 6 Report post Posted January 25, 2009 Mmm, spotted that one. Definitely sexy, but definitely not cheap compared to the others... then again this one looks tip top! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Proper cars like this one deserve to get discussed here too Interesting point, so you would rather the 540 over an m5? Edit: hmm, a quick read on wikepedia seems to suggest that the 540 has more grunt... why would BMW do that :|?

Edit: hmm, a quick read on wikepedia seems to suggest that the 540 has more grunt... why would BMW do that :|? much debated 540is vs M5 .similer but different . i have driven a 540is . not driven a e34 m5 yet . but plenty of 535i's. this one looks nice . maybe could replace my wifes ALPINA B10 look-a-like Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HELLBM 1552 Report post Posted January 26, 2009 Easy answer. 540is has 2 more cylinders and 1 more gear. No contest. Driven a couple of E34 M5`s, both lovely drives but they don`t do it like the 540is On another note have both a 540is and a E36 M3 (both `95) definately prefer the 540is Then we have the E39 M5. Breathtaking... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greg111 13 Report post Posted January 26, 2009 (edited) Grants M5 and your 540 were pretty similar in speed wearn't they Simon? Edit: Nice M5, cheap too. Edited January 26, 2009 by Greg. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Simon* Report post Posted January 26, 2009 Grants M5 and your 540 were pretty similar in speed wearn't they Simon? Edit: Nice M5, cheap too. Hard to measure to be fair - never enough straight road and his M5 doesn't love corners at the moment. I would say pretty similar though, yes.I have driven the M5 though - you definitely have to keep the revs up, doesn't compare for torque Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
