I'm selling my pride and joy 2001 BMW 540i Sport Wagon with Authentic Alpina Package and other extras. I have the pink slip in hand and the car has a clean title, no accidents.

The car is a prime example of how clean and well maintained a sought after BMW should be. It's very clean and runs very well and strong. According to BMW it is 1 of 406 made in 2001 but I don't know the count for actual sport models made in 2001, I'm assuming it's a small list.

All of the main maintenance needed on a E39 540 4.4 V8 have been done and taken care of. The car has had a preventative engine overhaul and will be fine for at least another 80k miles engine wise. I have the maintenance history for the time I have owned the car as well. The car has no mechanical issues besides the signs of wear that come with a 10+ year old car. The car comes from a car (BMW) enthusiast who has meticulously taken care of the car. Most recently I replaced the radiator 2 weeks ago along with belts and tensioners. She rolls smooth with no shakes.

Here's a new video I just made of the car with a walk around and some engine revs.

My car was also featured in Frank Ocean's album teaser last year. Here's the link to the youtube video.

Here is a list of the parts on the car:

Authentic Alpina bumper spoiler
Authentic 20" Alpina Softline wheels (tires are 5 months new)
Custom exhaust with custom made quad Alpina muffler tips
BC Racing 30 way adjustable coilovers for comfort or sportiness on your demand (you can adjust to your preference)
Akebono brake pads (low dust and keeps wheels spotless)
iPod/ iPhone hook up
10" Kicker subwoofer and 400w Kicker crossover amp for subwoofer (made for speaker)

Model description

Titanium Silver exterior
Gray sport interior
Sport seats
with wood trim
M steering wheel
Tiptronic tranny
Self leveling rear suspension
4.4 V8

My car is probably the only 540 sport wagon with real Alpina parts in the US, I think. I don't know of any other around like this one and I'm a car enthusiast.

miles 144,***
VIN WBADR634X1GN91596

Without some parts we can negotiate another price. But the car will come with all oem parts that were removed, including the 17" style 32 wheels and tires plus suspension parts and the stock resonator.

Price $12,900 obo (with all the extras which are worth over $6,000)


Any offer is a good offer, just call me so we can talk about it : )

Great looking E39, GLWTS!

 

Holy Tempting! Sick Wagon!

 

wow nice!!

 

Can you elaborate on the engine overhaul? Why was it needed?

 

I had a valley pan coolant leak which requires the top of the engine to be broken down, so because of this repair I decided to replace a long list if parts including the timing chain and rail guides and a lot more which is pretty much an overhaul without getting into internals like valves and such. The only thing I regret not waiting for was having the valve covers powder coated black which would have had the car overnight one more day from me.

 

here's a video I made of the car for some buyer who asked for it.

I'm tempted to have my mother run over from San Diego and drive it back to Ohio for me! Where in Ca are you?

 

Sounds like a good plan because the car will make it with no issues, she might get a speeding ticket or two on the way though.

I'm in Burbank CA which is basically Los Angeles.

Feel free to call me with any detailed questions.
