I must say though....interior fit and finish? It looked great when it was new, but I can't find an E39 whose interior has held up well after all these years. BMW interiors from that era didn't seem built to last.
My 2000 E39 540i 6-MT Sport has 101K miles and the interior is almost flawless. Had to replace the rear cup holders but everything else is fantastic!

The brand new 2017 G30 540xi was delivered to my store 2 days ago and I couldn't help but compare it to my E39 540i. Man... just the way the doors sound/feel when they shut on the E39 and how it sounded like a tank door closing compared to the flimsy G30 sound/feel.

I've always loved the E39 540i-6MT.

Incredible build quality. Smooth operator. Sedan or touring both are special.

Nice to know there are some low mileage examples around. !!
