E39 540i. everything you wud want in a car.

Enthusiasts say there's lack of steering feedback from E39 V8s...due to the recirculating ball type steering. Moreover it steers at the back of the axle.

Unlike the I-6s which uses rack & pinion provides plenty of feedback to the driver :top:

But if i can have a 280HP 540i, i ain't complaining about the steering :wink:

E39 M5 is also using recirculating ball steering, I don't think the owners complain about feedback..have u driven recirculating ball steering cars before.? Only vague slightly in the straight ahead position.. V8 enginea inside the engine bay, makes no space for rack and pinion steering rack ler....not because they want to change.

My E39 528 can tapau E60 530 from standstill using tiptronic at 3rd gear:listen:




That my friend,is a very bold declaration.IMHO both cars are great rides and I m ust agree,given a choice the 545 would be great or what the heck just might aswell go all the way and get the almighty M5 and shut eveyone up BUT we all have our various reasons why we don't go that far,don't we?for a start,you have any idea what the damn roadtax is for the 545 or for that matter the M5?yeah,that's right,I didn't think so too.so,for now I would settle for my smooth as a fiddle E60 530 and InitialM,pray it's not me next to you on to a drag man.my vote is for the E60 for now

No offense bro, like I said E60 is a good car too & I said I might buy E60 in future but I will not sell my E39. For me 5 series is a well rounded car. No need to pray bro, I would love to have a real test but not on the road. We may test at Pasir Gudang Track Saturday Nite Sprint for fun. I would not be ashame to lose to another BMW wt more displacement & hp. PM me for contact. Cheers:love:

when you say you tapau an E60 like it was a lesser car surely you don't expect owners of E60s to lay still and keep quiet do you bro?kalau ye pun,diplomatic a bit la.I surely don't intend to challenge you and the thought of me actually driving all the way to Pasir Gudang just to pit my car against yours?nah,not in my books la.You were also quick to say that you won't be ashamed to lose out to a bigger capacity Beemer so let's save us the trouble and conclude the 'sprint test' here je la.Look at it this way,if I were to come there with an E36 320 with God knows what under the hood and whoop the ass of an E39,it may not go down too well either,would it?Being in a public forum like this,one has to be fairly careful with one's claims.We have absolutely no idea whom we are talking to.If no offence was meant,then non is taken.Cheers to you too

bro...why u are over reacting towards initialM claim la...he was just telling about his encounter with this 530i e60 he mentioned and i dun think he meant to say that his 528i e39 can tapau all the 530i e60...:eek:

ur bold statement of asking him to pray it is not u beside him when he is driving is also unnecessary as it is a kind of challenge also and as u might have expected his reply with such statement he invite u to try it out instead at the track...far more safer on the public road...

anyway...no need to over react...just a forum to share experience and opinion...:top:
 
OK cool guys. I'm sorry & apologize if my statement offense any E60 owner.
I'm stating my experience wt a joking manner. Those who know me would know my style. Like I said E60 is a good car also & I almost sell my E39 & E36 for it but end up buying E46. By asking you for a sprint test is just for fun no challenge intended.
Anyway, do join the official TT in central & join BMWCM as official member.:top:
Lets not confuse the potential BMW buyer more rite.:wink: He just asking for opinion either between E39 & E60, both 5 series. Anyhow my advice for the buyer just think what do you really want & whether you can afford to buy & maintain. Its yr money, yr decision.:love:

Nice of you to come to his rescue but don't you think to claim to have TAPAU is a little non diplomatic?Over react?no la.Einstien's theory la.For every action there is an equal reaction.That's all.In anycase,chilll la.
 
Ok that's it. That's why I dun like this forum to open to public. Anyone can just be keyboard champion. Being new to this forum u r just lil overreact. I'm not siding t2ribena & in fact I'm not even know him. I'm being non-diplomatic?? I'm just sharing on my experience. In fact each car even the same model & production act differently.
Do you know what I've done to my car?


Have u heard 1 black E39 528 in KL tapau Porsche Cayyenne for breakfast? Have u meet/heard otai like Ramsing or 535 who drive powerful old E34?

Next time u bump on my rear give a honk or high beam. I will be glad to give way for yr spanking new E60 530



By the way, good luck wt yr sprint booster. Dun you think this forum benefited all?

Relax relax..
 
oh yummy yummy......

i cant stop stearing at the above e39.

btw, my friend took his uncle's e34. m50 auto with 18" wheel. he drove the car at the corner road (sg buloh to ijok, selangor) last night.... he said, it eats corners 1000 times better thn toyota vios. and superb handling. only minus point is low suddent pickup. maybe cuz of 18" wheel....

Maybe it's time for you to start a very private forum which is by invitation only(and I won't be offended if I'm not invited).I've won a few championships in a few fields but a Keyboard champion?That is new.Yes,as baffling as it may be to you,this after all.is a public forum.
Before you go calling names I have to agree with you that I'm new to this forum and yes,I don't know you either and no,I didn't say that you went to T2ribena's rescue but rather he went to your rescue.By you showing me the innards of your engine is suppose to be intimidating?I don't quite think so.Good for you man.I've always admired people who have passion for motorsports but untill you are used to a 0 to 100 of slightly under 2.3 seconds and a top speed well in excess of 320kmh(coz,been there done that)...I'm not impressed.Really,I didn't know this is how you talk and maybe I was too quick to take offence.I'm not here to compare who has one that is bigger either.For the record,I've been active in many forums and I would like to think that I had contributed my two cents worth to the www but it seems to be a different scenario here.Maybe I should just stick to getting informations and leave the size comparisons to you here.And for the sake of some peace for the rest of the good people here maybe we should drop this.And the next time I see your big mean machine come right up,I would pull over and even stop.Respect.
