I have owned a ton of neat BMW's, including 2 E39s and am now looking to add a new garage mate to my 03 4.6is. One option I am strongly considering is a E39 Touring. If I could find the right car. Well, there is a very clean looking 2001 sport package in dark red / maroon at a dealer in Sun Valley CA which is North of the LA area and East of Thousand Oaks.
If by chance anybody is near there and could go put a set of eyes on the car so I know if a plane trip for a potential purchase is warranted, I would greatly appreciate it. One thing I am especially interested in knowing if the tailgate rattles and does it close properly - it is supposed to be an electronic motor soft close.
I owned a 99 540 touring and did not have very good luck with that tailgate, so I know it is a problem area.
Anyway - send an email to me at
[email protected] if you might be able to go see the car. I will send you the dealer contact info.
