    I'm a German auto service advisor and I had not driven one in a few. About a month ago I got to drive a 99 with 154,000 on the odo. Boy I forgot how fun and punchy that engine is. Great ride, I ma pick one up if I get the chance.

    Nice drive and review.
    I enjoyed how you focused on the car and all it had for 2001. A lot of those features were high tech.

    E39 came out in '96 with side airbags standard. Quite standout at the time. The two-tone tan probably didn't look that sunfaded, they just looked that way. The piece on the roof that looks like it should have a light is a motion sensor for the alarm.

    We just bought a 2002 540i M Sport with the 4.4L V-8 as a project car. It's got some issues, but I'm looking forward to tinkering with it.

    Hey! Nice video! At 8:32 the strange box in the ceiling of the car is actually a motion sensor. Really handy, once the car is locked, if the box detects any motion on the inside of the vehicle the car alarm will be sounded. I have a 2001 BMW 330i and I learned that the hard way. hahaha!

    That roof part is where the ultrasonic sensor goes if equipped with a factory alarm system.

    When the 540 came out in 1996, there was no M5 and BMW claimed no M5 was in the works. The 540 was THE super sedan.
