This is the kind of vid that makes kids save their money and buy the exact car after 4 years. Love it, you got it absolutely right there, the sound, the drop, the rims, no excessive bling. Cars for life man!
I have a 2001 740i sport. It's an absolute blast to drive. Maintanace can be a little expensive depending on who does the work. I live in Washington, not many people are willing to work on it unless you give them time. I would highly recommend this car for anyone looking to get one.
Protože za minulý tejden kluci dělali silentbloky na zádních nápravách, nechápu kdo to vymsyslel že musí zadní tlumiče ven jen tak že rozděláš zadní sedačky a tři čtvrtě kufru.
Yeah, they're getting old now but I still love the E38s. I'm working on my 750iL E38 project right now. I'll have a video up on that after the car is done.
The pipes were just bought at a local auto parts store, 2.25" in size. The x-pipe is also just a generic 2.25" x-pipe. The rear mufflers are Remus, and they are not cheap in any way.
This is a true 97 production car, I can post the last 7 of the VIN if you want and you can go ahead and call the dealership for the option list and build date of the vehicle. Prefacelift cars came with navigation, but rare. Mostly the 750iL came with nav. My brother's 97 740i also has a tv system, just like my 98 750il did. I now have retrofitted a DICE KIT, C43 Radio, MK4 Nav and 16:9 Screen in my 750il. Look through my other videos for the dice/nav retrofit functionality
This is my brother's car. We shot this video right after we installed Kiddo coilovers, complete suspension rebuild front and rear with lemforder parts, 3.15 differential from a 99-01 740i sport, modified the exhaust (deleted resonator, deleted cats, rehanged the mufflers up higher to fit the cutout in the bumper and installed an x-pipe),
I had a black on black 2000 with the M-sport package, Vavona wood, black out trim, the works. They truly broke the mold when they discontinued this car in 2001. I look for the exact same car in a 2001 with the wide screen nav and three spoke steering wheel. Another sought after model is the navy blue with two-tone blue and cream leather that has alternate piping (Blue piping on cream leather for the seats). I've only seen and driven the standard auto in this. M-sport is night and day different.
As Dima says, no need to dream my friend... my brother just sold his for £800 and it was a very solid example with a few small dings, 1999 so newer than this. I've had mine for almost 7 years, lowered on 20", and I love it, so reliable and comfortable and powerful and easy and nice to drive... Get one now before they ban V8s!
If you would like a tune to go with it, let me know. I do DME tuning/reflashes for all years of 540i 93-2003, all 740i models from 93-2003, and am working on 750il tunes at the moment.
What are common issue's with this car maintenance wise ? especially if you get it around 100k miles ? what to be expected to change ? b4 i get into buyin one :)
Such a great sounding car! Getting an e38 740 in the next month or so (750 too rare in uk!) how much are tunes btw and what engine is better in your opinion out of the m60, m62 and m62tu?! Your help is appreciated!
Such nice looking cars, this one particularly. Wish they weren't so unreliable though, never found one that didn't have a laundry list of things broken on it and those repairs are not cheap.
I run a repair shop and mainly work on BMWs and tune them as well. So for me repair are pretty much free. I'd recommend the 750il as they're much more reliable.
Unreliable cuz after their company-car-for-executives time, most have been sold for a few dimes to people unable to maintain them, and merely willing to buy themselves a large number of cylinders for nothing.
They are replica of the OEM M-parallel wheels that come on the 99+ sport models. I have a few real m-parallel sets at home, but prefer to run 19" AC Schnitzer Type 2 on my 750iL.
Occasionally, yes. But they go away, for cat efficiency. I'll be releasing OBD2 M62 and M62TU tunes very soon, which will include rear o2 sensor delete via software coding.
A little loud for my own taste in a 7, but I will say Remus are some of the better sounding aftermarket BMW systems I have heard. Great looking car and vid... What's that squeaking when you're rolling over those dips in the parking lot?
I had a set of real OEM m-parallels before that were chromed. I'm not a fan of chrome, I do have a set of OEM m-parallels laying in my back yard, which I'm going to sell as I longer need them.
@Dima G, I just bought a 1997 740il with 109k miles, almost showroom condition (almost but not quite), and I want to get more power out of it. I hear you talk about a remote tune, shoot me a message I'd like to know more, and how much. Only thing wrong with mine is the ASC is not functioning, so somehow I need to check the speed sensors.
hello there what did you do to your wheels are these painted or chromed? Also what size wheels and tyres you got on cuz I have to say that it looks good 😀
This is the kind of vid that makes kids save their money and buy the exact car after 4 years. Love it, you got it absolutely right there, the sound, the drop, the rims, no excessive bling. Cars for life man!
Thanks.
This video is the exact reason I started saving my money, haha gonna buy a 740IL for my first car :)
@@CALLUUUMMMM did you buy it? :)
@@brunosel1 I have since owned about 14 E38’s. I currently own a 96 750il, a 01 740i and a 01 740il. Its safe to say I bought it. Hahaha.
Best V8 Sound for a 740
This is how any big, luxury saloon car should sound!
I have a 2001 740i sport. It's an absolute blast to drive. Maintanace can be a little expensive depending on who does the work. I live in Washington, not many people are willing to work on it unless you give them time. I would highly recommend this car for anyone looking to get one.
My dream car. One of the best sounds I've ever heard, great work!
I think I'm in love.
Your video is the reason, I will maybe go personal bankrupt.
zbrankrotujete se, abyste si koupil e38? :D
Docela starej komentář, je pravda že E38 sem koupil.
Anthony Wave proč zbankrotovat?

Great looking E38 and sound! Without seeing the car at 1:28 I would think it's an American Srt-8,
Yeah, they're getting old now but I still love the E38s. I'm working on my 750iL E38 project right now. I'll have a video up on that after the car is done.

I laughed out loud when he accelerated in reverse 😂😂😂
:D:D:D:D
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Transpoter movies
Amazing exhaust sound! Perfect black paint. E38!
Best Sedan ever made 💪

Nice looking car! I was hoping for a better exhaust note... expected more from a BMW tbh, but still, classic v8 rumble.
1:45 going in reverse, she got so pissed with that grunt... but kept going like the queen that she is
This is my brother's car.

That sounds amazing, very similar to my car from what I understand.
Man you not kidding! I hate i sold my 95 black on tan with style 118 wheels. Sooo thinking about getting another one.
Sounds great! Looked like you almost got it sideways in the leaves.
wow! this sounds amazing! love the polished m pars. you should put m pars on your lsb dima :D just to see what it looks like
the beast ! reall love it
Best car of that era.
Damn,… I’m doing that tomorrow…. Great sound
Thanks. A lot of work went into building this exhaust.
MY DREAM CAR!
Great cars, I love cruising my 750il all over the place. Lucky for you, E38s are now pretty cheap and your dream is easily achieved.
As Dima says, no need to dream my friend... my brother just sold his for £800 and it was a very solid example with a few small dings, 1999 so newer than this.

olatron Gotta get the v12
My next BMW
Great choice
You can't go wrong whit E38 ;)
the best ever 7-series, no doubt
Can't wait to put exhaust of my 540i.
Fckn sick sound 👌💪
Looks so fucking badass. Sounds mint daamn.
nice sound
enriching - tests and opinions
Thanks
No, they're are 18" staggered set. I would prefer OEM M-parallels over these.
If you would like a tune to go with it, let me know. I do DME tuning/reflashes for all years of 540i 93-2003, all 740i models from 93-2003, and am working on 750il tunes at the moment.
Nice Shorty!
love how perfect this car sounds, however i cant seem to find where to buy these mufflers, any help would be appreciated
Best BMW Ever !
Lovely fucking sound man
Thanks
What are common issue's with this car maintenance wise ? especially if you get it around 100k miles ? what to be expected to change ? b4 i get into buyin one :)
holyshitt... brutal sound ....
ماشاء الله
Beautiful sound
the best sound
Best V8 Sound!!!
Thanks. I'll be making more videos of my 750iL soon and they're going to be better.
Such a great sounding car! Getting an e38 740 in the next month or so (750 too rare in uk!)
how much are tunes btw and what engine is better in your opinion out of the m60, m62 and m62tu?! Your help is appreciated!
Such nice looking cars, this one particularly. Wish they weren't so unreliable though, never found one that didn't have a laundry list of things broken on it and those repairs are not cheap.

I'd recommend the 750il as they're much more reliable.
Dima G how about 3.0 V8 reliability?
ICECUBE682
3.0 v8 is pretty reliable as well, just much less power than the 4.4/4.0
I don't know wich planet you lived on but there are several healthy ones out there no matter what engine it has.
Unreliable cuz after their company-car-for-executives time, most have been sold for a few dimes to people unable to maintain them, and merely willing to buy themselves a large number of cylinders for nothing.
Saving up currently to buy a 740i and this one looks sick! Whats the year and set up for suspension?
Privet from San Diego :)
That's the sound of V8........wonderfull
Very nice car and video ...
Say Bro , I'm looking for one , what does a tune up cost or yearly maintenance for this baby ?
Nice car good stance great sound.
Awesome sound.
They are replica of the OEM M-parallel wheels that come on the 99+ sport models. I have a few real m-parallel sets at home, but prefer to run 19" AC Schnitzer Type 2 on my 750iL.
Occasionally, yes. But they go away, for cat efficiency.
I'll be releasing OBD2 M62 and M62TU tunes very soon, which will include rear o2 sensor delete via software coding.
Damn! in my country one of those cost u$s 35.000 from 2000, ilove this car!!!
In the 1997 models they didn't feature the GPS that is most likely a 1999 of 1998 because I own a 2001 BMW 740i
We did not measure it up. I would say around 2.5-3" up front and 1.5-2" rear
I hope to get my 97' 740il sounding like this! Can you give me a link on a website that has the Remus muffers that you have on?
Hi lovely car, what sort of headlights are you running? Xenons in the factory lights or did you fit aftermarket projectors?
Where did you find the exhaust? I cannot locate it anywhere online. Any help would be appreciated. Awesome sound!!
Awesome car and brutal sound :D
Sounds good!!!
Well done!
The 740 1995 until 2001 is in my mind in top 5 best cars ever made. From 2002 until 2008 pure grade A shit.
Eargasm.
SWEEEEET!!!!!
OMG! WANT THIS !!!!!!!! :O
A little loud for my own taste in a 7, but I will say Remus are some of the better sounding aftermarket BMW systems I have heard. Great looking car and vid... What's that squeaking when you're rolling over those dips in the parking lot?
e38 legend!!!
These were the M-parallel replica wheels.
these rims! 😍 which brand and which model? OEM styling 37?!
Awesome sound man!
I have a 94 540i would i get the same results with this tune ( xpipe catless etc..) ? what would you you suggest?
*Germany..nation of perfection*
I had a set of real OEM m-parallels before that were chromed. I'm not a fan of chrome, I do have a set of OEM m-parallels laying in my back yard, which I'm going to sell as I longer need them.
My cars radiator hose pump pops off my car after 15 seconds of it running.. Is that a blown head?
97, but I'd prefer the looks of 99-01 more.
Suspension: all brand new lemforder bushings and KIDDO coilovers.
good sound
Зверюга👍👍👍👍
haha nice :D i bet your neighbour is hating you :D :D
Lovely
What suspension is on the car?
I believe it had Kiddo Coil-overs. Not sure it they're still around
nice!!!
In chrome.
great sound btw
Thanks.
@Dima G, I just bought a 1997 740il with 109k miles, almost showroom condition (almost but not quite), and I want to get more power out of it. I hear you talk about a remote tune, shoot me a message I'd like to know more, and how much.
Only thing wrong with mine is the ASC is not functioning, so somehow I need to check the speed sensors.
Message sent
how do i find the messages, never been able to see where they go since youtube made all these changes.
Jon Torres
Just like my page " DUDMD Tuning" on facebook, and send me a message there.
Thanks.
perhaps. i just always had a thing for mpars. for the last 10 years i have loved m pars, and i love your car. so why not both? lol...
TOP

Watching this makes me seriously regret selling my e38 :(
Top!
OH DAMN!
Hey hey, just got a 740il yesterday, what rear bumper is that? which allows space for a quad exhaust?
Hey I wanna do something like this but I need some help
Amazing BMW, perfect. Or is this r18 rims ?
