    Man love the E39 M5, the best era of BMW's for sure. There something about older bimmers that just appeals to alot of enthusiasts, just like me. Great example Tom, I would go ahead and get a full suspension refresh, once you are going that deep, might as well get it done so it you know that its all done and no surprise bushing goes out and have to do pay twice. Enjoy that S62 ! :)

    I relax with Tedward's videos, and the E39 was a little of a surprise for me. I never paid attention to E39s, but back in 2020 a mate of mine bought the 530d, and I fell in love with the "old schoolness". It felt and drove amazingly, and to be fully honest, I have never been as surprised by a car as the E39.
    I know that despite being an Italian exotics lover, this BMW surely holds a spot in my dream garage.
    Thanks as usual, Tedward.

    Hit the nail on the head with the seals. My c32 has been leaking oil and the shop today told me about $1600.00 to replace the rear main seal. Did the valve cover gaskets 2 years ago with a ton of other things as well. Old German cars get expensive. When it rains it pours, I find... and yes I'm talking about oil.

I’d love to get an E39 for traveling, but my husband/mechanic hates working on BMWs newer than the E30. So…. My office mate has two e39s, one immaculate white car that I just drool over.

    "You need to treat these as things you love." When anyone asks me about buying cars, I tell them that I think about cars the same way I think about vacations. Trading money for an experience over some period of time. That's it. It's never an "investment." (And the nice thing about cars is that the net $5k going out the door usually gets you an experience that lasts more than 7 days.)

    As a semi mechanic I can chime in on your tiny “80mph semi” comment. Through all manufacturers software which you have to use for diagnostics, ecm updates, and many other things, you are also able to modify the “road speed” (actual vehicle speed cap) and “cruise speed” (maximum speed the cruise control can be set at).

    You know, I was feeling a bit confused when I saw the front of the new 5 series, I didn't know why it looked so foreign to me, as if BMW lost the design plot. But then seeing the front end of your E39, you can definitely see some inspiration. It's mostly in the way the hood points down so abruptly. Your car seems to be a bit that way. And don't get me wrong, it's sexy af. Is it just me ??
