MattA 164 Report post Posted October 19, 2015 Welcome to the family, NZ new E61 535d m-sport 2006. 2nd owner (excluding the sales yard that had it for a week or so) All I can say is torque! Just put on some new 19" slippers (new to me), not 100% on the colour of them but might change that or let them dirty up a bit. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MattA 164 Report post Posted October 20, 2015 ^ It has some pull, quite different to the 540. More like a gentle shove that increases on force, almost lazy... The 19"s have changed it a bit, more road feedback. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will be keeping a very keen eye out for this around town Have to catch up and have a look at it. A B8 would be something very special, but I might loose some body parts if I bring home another bmw. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aja540i 1906 Report post Posted October 20, 2015 Apparently if you start mucking around with the ecu and turbos etc, these will leave the M5 behind. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MattA 164 Report post Posted October 21, 2015 Apparently if you start mucking around with the ecu and turbos etc, these will leave the M5 behind. Like the sound of that! It's supposedly been tuned to 230kW and 680nm though I have no documentation to support that. I need to contact the original owner and find out what was done.

Nah, you probably wont like the sound of it, the M5 will ALWAYS sound better! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
