The sound of that car when accelerating is beautiful. I know because I have the same 523i. E39 Best car in the world.

I sold my E39 528i Touring one year ago and I'm still crying... :-(
Now my car is a BMW E61 525i Touring (facelift 3 Liter engine), but it's not the same, less emotional driving.

Great car, beautiful drive! Its a shame that rear door is damaged, it would have been perfect E39 example :D thanks for the vid, loved it! ;)

What is fuel consumption when you drive in the city ( stop&go traffic) and is this engine reliable i am look to buy one with 270k km

[feldwebelschultz]

It’s not a 96 er Modell, because the 96er Modell has no its head bag. This one has some head bags. I think it’s a late 97 iger or a 98 Modell 🖖

BMW naturally aspirated flat 6 hill climb.

This motor is too weak! The fun starts with the 2.5i - 5.0i and the 30.D is also great with a manual gearbox!
