ssbmw 217 Report post Posted July 12, 2009 Hi all, I was wondering whether you could help me with a query - when a E39 is defined as a Highline - what does this entail? With the E24's, the last of the cars were face-lifted from September 87 to March 1989. With the UK cars, not only did they have a revised bumper assembly with less chrome, they also had a leather dash-board, leather door panels and headlining. These were officially classified as a "Highline." I owned a 89' 635csi Highline - fabulous car. However, no-one I have spoken to can explain what a E39 Highline is (and you see them described that way in adverts). Is this an expression that signifies a face-lift?
