Sorry, forgot the specs...

'98 528iM, 77k miles with Dinan S package

(Stage 2 Performance Engine Software, High Flow Cold Air Intake, Free Flow Exhaust, Front Strut Tower Brace, Signature Series Floor Mats, Dinan Deck Lid Badge, Serial Numbered Dinan S Plaque), with 18's.
Stock stereo, but I yanked some of the stuff from my 3 series so I have a foundation to build on.

Yes. Deep dish 18x8.5 I "think", I forgot to ask the previous owner about that. Oh, and Eibach springs with stock shocks and struts. Very good ride.

Much more refined than my E36 as you can imagine. Having the E34 still makes me feel good knowing that it's a solid car that I can still work on so I'm a bit intimidated by a newer OBDII car. I'll get over it though. The driving experience is wonderful. Quiet cabin, well appointed layout, ridiculously smooth revving engine especially with the Dinan mods. It doesn't have the neck jerking torque of the old "big" 6s or the V8's but it's plenty fast and very stable. Also, it doesnt feel as heavy as the E34 does, but that was part of the E39 design to reduce unsprung weight. I think I'm going to enjoy this car for a long time.
