I have been getting the itch to add something more powerful to the stable again. This will replace either my e30 or my Land Rover for DD status. I know it won't handle anything like my 318is, but I'm leaning more towards comfort, power, and being able to haul clients in something they aren't embarrassed to be seen in. I've really had my eye on an e39 for a while, my neighbor has a gorgeous 530i. I found a couple 540i sport packages in my area and may check them out this week.

Both are pretty high mileage, but I've seen plenty of M62s out there with a lot more miles, and these 2 are still less than the 268k on my e30. The silver one is also on a local forum, it sounds like he's kept it up mechanically other than the "wheel wobble."
The black one is listed 'by owner' but sounds like a mechanic flipping the car. Can't hurt to at least take a look at the price, it's been listed for a while so could probably talk him pretty low. People around here are scared off by mileage and manual transmissions in general.
Any thoughts? Anyone here have a 540i?
