    Ive owned two 540's the first a t reg and the current a 52 plate. The performance is amazing especial in manual mode at the traffic lights. It handles brilliantly and seems to look alot better than for eg a 528. the newer model with the double vanos engine seems to pick up better than the older 1. M ...

    I bought my BMW 540i, 2002, as a part exchange with an older BMW 520i, but in a main dealer. I was already delighted with a 520i for comfort and built quality. I found all this and a lot more in my 540i. More power, faster, more torque, and still, this beast can be driven in a very gentle and dilige ...

    I purchased my 2003 540iA (with the full M-sport pkg) in Feb/09 in Vancouver BC and drove it back to Manitoba. After going thru 'Rogers Pass' in the Rockies I was tempted to go back and do it again. Everytime I get in the car I can't wipe the grin off my face, other 540i owners know what I mean. ...

    My husband bought me a 1999 BMW 540i wagon with the Premium package in 2007 in Canada. Despite him offering to look a the Audi, Volvo and Passat equivalents, after reading the reviews I kept being lured to the 540. After driving this car for only a short time, I knew that there is absolutely no comp ...

    I own a 2003 540 Stick Sport Very smooth power, quite at speed... I can get about 30 MPG at 60-65 MPH on a long trip as long as I watch my throttle and Acceleration. What a dream to drive. I have had the car to 145 Mph and could not believe that it was still pulling!
    Wow - I cannot think of an issue ...

    I chipped, airboxed and opened the exhaust on my stock 540 auto trans and it is a beast. With the right tires and driver with the anti-skid turned off this thing wil roast almost anyone that wants to race.
