On 740's. Primarily the 1998-2001's. What are you guys' thoughts? I've been kind of toying with the idea of trying to off load most of the E30's and pick one up.

Nevermind i was thinking volvo haha.

Make sure you buy one that has lots of service history. I wouldn't even consider a non sport package car. Timing chains, heater cores and transmission issues are the common downfalls to that gorgeous car. I would love one someday, but the e34 does alright.

That's my next bmw. Sport model as well. I love the mpars on the sport model. Staggered goodness.

paging AAA325iS...he had an E38 with, I think, over 200k on the clock. He'd be the guy to ask about how they are. If I recall he never had any major issues with it.

Nice looking car. Not a fan of the tan interior, but that's not a show stopper on that car.

That E38 looks nice. Always plan on $1000 for valve covers and upper timing case covers if it hasn't been done in the recent past. Any antifreeze by the belhousing is a bad valley pan. Those and rear ballpoints are the things to look for.
