Found one of my holy grail cars!

[gart]

After 2+ years of searching I finally found myself a e39 540it, struck up a deal yesterday and I am picking up the car after work today. I couldn't sleep last night like I was a 10 year old on Christmas Eve. So excited I had to post this up before even picking up the car. Pics to come when I get it home since I already know it will be asked. It's a 99 sport package, Schwartz II, on black. That's it for now. Happy Friday r3v!

Got it home and gave it a quick wash.

Haha not sure if this is a reference I'm missing but no. I wish I had a cool story of how I found it like Joe Dirt. It was just waiting for one to pop up.

Didn't come with a six in the us. It will eventually get one though.

In before rear air suspension malfunctioning! Too bad these cars had so many problems, because otherwise it's a beautiful estate car with a lot of power

Yes, it is inevitable along with a whole list of other things that are going to fail on this car. I thought long and hard and almost backed out of the deal on it, but I ended up getting it for a price that I'm very very happy with. I don't have to rely on this car and I've always said this is one of my must haves. With that said it already broke a window regulator Its all good, I like turning wrenches on my cars and knowing, that I can give them the love they need. I guess we will see in in a year or two if I'll get tired of replacing regulators, complete cooling systems and the multiple other things that fail in these.
