FIRST DRIVE of my 6 Speed $1500 E39 BMW 540i with it’s NEW ENGINE!!

So the $1500 BMW E39 540i project is coming to an end. Everything is looking good to go except some very small bits that will be done this week. Next video is going to be breaking down the cost of everything and then we’ll be listing her for sale!

Keep this E39; they're the best BMW ever made, and sell your newer one's. You won't regret it im the long run.

Love that platform. Have 2 540s and the mighty M5. They are very satisfying to drive and becoming more rare these days. Lots of diy repair info online and parts are relatively cheap. Also just picked up a 1991 850i with the very rare 6speed manual.-

Burnouts are worth the potential finantial cathastrophe on the 540s ^^

Awesome machine man. Keep it up and keep her up!

[@TheRazvy1990]

Ehy do you change the engine ??

[@theamerican7080]

I was wondering the same thing...

[@FAQBrooks]

I just bought a 2003 540i automatic (😢) but runs absolutely amazing! Roughly $1000 for a perfect running E39 no matter what drivetrain can’t be passed up

[@ISwearThatsDylan]
