Congratualtions Chris. That's great that you got more. And glad you are going to stay within the fold.
My 540 is now with it's new owner... he will be joining here in the near future.
My last drive in the 540 left me feeling sad... so smooth and fast, like a high performance rolling sofa!
The 330 is fun, but does not compare in any way with the e34.
The plan is to now find an M car in perfect shape. Could be an e34 M5, there are not many in my area of the east coast, but one will turn up eventually.
Maybe an M3, but the size and feel of the 5 is what I really want. It would be a track car also.
I would also take a "limited" Canadian 540i - (with some of the M parts stock)
I got more than my $6k asking price also, it was a fair deal for both of us, he is now experiencing "gear 4" and the perma-grin it leaves on your face!
Either way, I am not going anywhere! If you thought you would get rid of me after selling the 540, you were sadly mistaken!!!

this time I want something truly unique... a touring M would REALLY make me happy!
I need an M or something I can drive occasionnally for a rush.... the 330 does not fulfill my thrill desires!!!
Not to knock the e46... it is really nice, but NOT what you might expect, a little "regular".
Obviously, I have been spoiled with the 282 HP in the 540!

hell i want a list of people that pay more how did that go down-just curious
6,000.00 USD United States Dollars = 6,702.00 CAD Canada Dollars
I got $6750 Cdn, so only $48 more.
Then again, I just paid for the brand new battery, so actually, I guess I lost a bit after all.

why did you sell?
-inc
'91 e31 850
'90 e34 535
'02 CBR F4i stunt/track bike
'07 gsxr 750 stunt bike
I needed the 330 for safety features, and a regular auto 540 is not what I wanted.
I want a clutch.

Amen to that. Congrats on making the move!Originally Posted by SharkmanBMW
Is a 540 more fuel efficient than an S38B38?
Hmmm... also am I right in thinking there never was an e34 (V8) M5? Did they just stop making M5s after '93 and then wait until they could release it as a V8 in the e39 body?
I know what I would be doing if I were you- I'd be looking for a Alpina B10 BiTurbo (globally) to love and cherish, for better or for worse... till death will you part! There's one in the UK that needs saving atm.
