This 2000 BMW 540i sedan is powered by a 4.4-liter M62 V8 paired with a six-speed manual transmission and is said to have been modified with a 3.15:1 limited-slip differential, an AC Schnitzer short shifter, aftermarket springs and dampers, and a Dinan throttle body, intake, and exhaust system. It is finished in Titanium Silver Metallic over Gray leather and was optioned from the factory with the Sport Package. Additional features include 17″ Style 32 wheels, xenon headlights, and an aftermarket front bumper cover and rocker panel extensions. The seller purchased the car in 2005 and has since added approximately 33k of the 102k miles. This E39 540i is now offered at no reserve with a car cover, service records, spare parts, a clean Carfax report, and a clean California title in the seller’s name.
