My MONSTER 540i will be for sale
I have every receipt and every scrap of paper on the build...Performance BMW Magazine is doing an article on the car here in a few months.
I will have fresh videos the weekend after Memorial day weekend...
My 2003 540i Sport is up for sale.52k on the odometer.5K on all the modifications as far as mileage.It has just been completely gone through and is 100%.Last dyno was something like 589 RWHP @ 6100 RPM and 511 Torque at 5250RPM on a Mustang Dyno.( On a Dyna Pak Dyno it showed 627WHP and 561 Torque)I will find the lists of things the car has later.The car will most likely be in the Miami area by the end of May ( I am delayed a bit ) as I need to be in North Palm Beach around then and that will be a good ride for my last ride.I am only interested in serious offers from those who know what they are buying and of course I know I will take a bath on the price.The car needs to go to an enthusiast to enjoy the fruits of my labor and $$$$....$40,000
Here is a short video.

The car is pretty much Mint inside and out ( I did drive the car ) and has just been gone through completely as I want the next owner to be able to enjoy the car.
The motor cost 20K to have built at VAC Motorsports in Philly.
Like I said everything has been done new as of 5,000 miles ago.I will have a list online, when I get back from sailing,of all the various parts that are basically brand new.I just decided to let the car go to someone else when I put this up.I am too busy these days to deal with the car and figure that someone would want to enjoy the car at my expense.

Oh yeah, the car has never been tracked and the worst abuse it got was on a Dyno tuning it....
Just pulled the plugs...

Man.....this would be one hell of a daily driver

 

It drives like a normal car in a closed loop fuel system until you put your foot into the accelerator pedal and the it acts like the street legal race car it is built to be...
Tuning by RUMA TUNING INC. made it so....

 

Wow very nice 540i, It would be mine on steriods I can imagine its gotta be a blast to drive. Would make a great daily beast for someone. GLWS

 

It will be a nice car for someone to drive around , I had my fun putting it together( Had my troubles as well of course) now it is time for it to go to someone else to enjoy.
Thanks for the good wishes.

 

So well done. I will spread the word. Best of luck with the sale.

 

I made sure that nothing ,but the best went into the car.I cleaned up all the wiring , I cleaned up all the fuel and oil lines ,all the intercooler piping was custom made to be efficient,the 8 rib pulleys on the super charger system do their jobs and no slippage ,the Vibrant Performance couplings are great ,the Vibrant Performance resonator works really well to keep the drone down,The stereo works pretty good for what it is ( BSW upgrades and subwoofer) All in all the car came out well after me being persistent.
Plus getting the best tuner to fly to the car to tune the car,no piggy back OEM Alpha N ....
Thanks....
