Ruykava Neutral Newbie June 14, 2011 Share June 14, 2011 Recently went overseas, saw the good old BMW E39 5-series - once rated the best car in the world back in 2000 (10 years ago!). It really DOES look good even today, has that solid and no nonsense feel. I have not seen the car on any second hand website in Singapore though.. wonder if anyone here might have one and interested to sell? I would only be interested if it's a straight-six or... dare I say it... M version.. Let me know! I am definitely interested ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosschang 1st Gear June 14, 2011 Share June 14, 2011 The E39 is pretty rare in sg mkt, probably because of the high COE at the time resulting most owner would rather scrap rather than reselling it in the used market... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chpeck Clutched June 14, 2011 Share June 14, 2011 This ride has among the most durable gearbox, easily 7 years or more. No "eating" of engine oil, fantastic fuel economy 12.6 hwy and 9.6 combined. Alot easier to maintain than E60, what more can person ask? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
