I thought I'd show all the mods I did to my E39 in one transformation video.
More info on the car:
Color: Schiefergruen metallic (#449).
Rondell D58 specs:
8,5x18 fronts with ET13 + 20mm spacer and 225/40 tires
10x18 rears with ET19 + 15mm spacer and 255/35 tires
Dezent winter wheel specs:
8x17 front and rear with ET15 + 20/15mm spacers and 225/40 tires

    • @@vladanberisavljevic3326 I would probably go for the 530i. That M54 engine is probably the most reliable engine BMW has ever built, and you get the best of both worlds, good power and good fuel economy. The V8s reliability is a bit of a mistery, arent that much more powerful, have much worse fuel economy, and are heavier. Also it will be pretty hard to find a manual V8, so I would get the 3l straight six. The only exception is the V8 in the M5, where fuel economy doesn't matter, has tons of power and torque, and reliability is insanely good for a V8 with that much power. Those engines are built like tanks.
