1997 BMW 540 540i 4dr Sedan review

A true sports car in a family sedan.

January 13, 2023

By RN540traveler from Punta gorda, Florida

Owns this car

It’s hard to describe but you have to own one or at least have driven one enough to fully appreciate it . On the highway With the 6sp the v8 and heavy flywheel will spin up to 3000rpm and that’s when you hear the silky smooth engines induction become more aggressive…very addictive. The sport suspension is sublime and loves winding roads. At triple digit speeds the steering and suspension is perfectly preloaded and hunkers down without bouncing around.The 6speed manual is a must have. It’s geared so perfectly that even with only 282hp the car accelerates with the same intensity all the way to the limiter . I like this model so much that I also bought a 2000 m5 in 2018 when prices were very reasonable (9,000$). That car is a true super sedan. But the 540i sport /6speed has a better balance of comfort and is still sporty enough to put a Smile on my face 9 years later . It’s my daily driver and car choice for long highway trips. The comfort seats are awesome and fuel efficiency on hwy is 21-22 mpg at 80+mph. Current mileage 155,000. 1997-1998 pre vanos 540s are less complicated than later years…. like I said these cars are very high maintenance ( cooling system, window regs, oil leaks, timing chain system)but parts are reasonable and pretty abundant, DIY info is available and a novice mechanic can keep them on the road… as long as you have the time to do so.

Excellent Daily Driver

June 20, 2023

By Moose from Illinois

Owns this car

A great daily driver that is comfortable, quiet, and relaxing. The tech features are low stress and easy. Always feels ready to reduce stress with spirted driving. Has a way of wrapping around you to feel like a smaller car as you drive and still be large enough to feel safe on a road full of crossovers.
