I drive a 2003 E39 530i and I love it to pieces. I don’t nitpick the transmission but he engine is spectacular. It’s my daily driver and, with a 40+ minute commute to work, I spring out of bed in the mornings. I only paid $2,100 for it (127,000 miles on it at purchase) and I find myself happily putting work back into the car when she needs it. It’s a car to be driven for people who love to drive and I’m happily in love with mine.
Couldn't agree more with the way you are describing the excitement to drive your 530i. It's so much car for the price, yet you don't pay the prices of the m5 to maintain it 🙂
i hate that i can’t find one near me for 2k you can only get a poor condition one for 2k
Yeah the prices skyrocketed pretty bad lately
@@DrivenbyDrivers Unfortunately i’m settling on an E36 for 2k to learn cars for now. E39 will come next once I get lucky
They're nice and a great platform to learn stuff. We made a video about the e36 as well
Great review. Every time I drive my e39 525 M-Sport, I don't want to get out anymore!
I've had e39 four times and it's never boring
Are you referring to the frequent breakdowns and repairs? Because that's the case with my 2002 530iA Touring...it never gets boring. It craves attention all the time like a baby and doesn't let me breathe calm for one moment
It is absolutely the most pasionate BMW we drove
I own two BMW E39's a 525d 2002 and a 530D 2003 and they are so nice that it feels like i could drive it for life.
Yea 2 bemmers. 1 to drive . other in the shop.
@@willmurray222 100% you right the 525d 2002 is in a shop because of electric problems but i don't even daily drive the 530d 2003 because i have a newer car for daily. So the E39's are for restoring the 530d is already restored jest the 525d left to restore
That's kinda rude to say... Yet it's so true, for us atleast
@@DrivenbyDrivers my comment was rude?
No it's rude to assume that one is always broken so we need another to drive. Yet it's so true
I have a 2003 530 M Sport ( the very last of the E39 Chassis) I love it.
Sounds great 😁👍
E39 the best car ever built
All the stars aligned in creating this masterpiece. The e39 design proportions have been emulated by untold numbers of other cars over the past 20 years. But none have surpassed this original, now classic benchmark for all others. The mechanical brilliance of this machine and the beautiful body lines have conspired to make the best sedan ever built.
As of this writing, 10/13/23.....an e39 can still be purchased for a reasonable sum of money. However, we see an incremental value increase with no end in sight. Grab one now while it's still affordable. Then restore it back to origal. Guaranteed best investment you'll ever make on a car!
this video and channel is soo underrated
Thanks, much appreciated :)
The comments on this are very telling. Picking one up Saturday and looking fwd to it 😎
Enjoy it, you wont regret it!
It does seem like a bargain so long as the autobox holds up 🤞
As long as you service it regulairly you should be okay. And swapping the box out is do-able ad well when "the time has come" 🙂
@@DrivenbyDrivers yea, figure on a long weekend with a rented garage when the time comes 😎
Ay man I have a e39 530i was wondering what kind of exhaust you had on this car sounds really nice and clean
It's the stock exhaust with a removed muffler :) It sounds pretty sweet
2002 3.0 s auto for the last 15 years. So good.
Nice!
Hello, cool channel I just found, nice video. I want to get one as my first car, 3.0 manual, I'd prefer blue exterior colors, if not silver or green. Interior - I like black one the least, it just has to be not too worn. But the prices are rising, not sure for how much I'll be able to get one(from 3 to 5), I plan to keep it as long as possible and make some light tuning to it maybe to 300HP maximum, without turbos, suspension tune too. But I'm not sure how and when I'm going to get one, I'm 20 and it's one of the biggest goals for me, while it's so misarable sometimes that I can't get myself a car...

E39 is the best 5 series they ever made
I love the e39
Bought my third one
Enjoy it!
@@DrivenbyDrivers thank you! just uploaded a short video :)
@krezo somehow i cant open your channel
@@DrivenbyDrivers okay 😳 so i got to enjoy it for myself haha
Hele dikke wagen!
"with an old 5?" 😂
But a good one! :D
A BMW E39 530i with 228 PhP..???? Is it a Pre "Face Lift"?? Must be...I have an E39 530i 2002 with 231 BhP....and whe i shift it to sport modus, it shifts pretty fast............
My e39 530 i has 545.000km on First Engine
That's impressive! Still going strong?
@@DrivenbyDrivers yess, 250kmh is no problem. for sure still over 200 horespower.
Besides the engine, what parts did you have to repair?, automatic?
@@mendyefraim7875 no manual, i change the first clutch this winter because its not good anymore. Thats the only big thing that is now necassary and i bought a new m suspension beacuse didnt feel good too
Shame about the music
We are always open for feedback, can you explain what you don't like about it?
Sure. Everyone is doing that slow roll gangsta music between 1min and 3min. It’s a beautiful car that is arguably the pinnacle on BMW’s engineering, not some dirty kerb crawling drug shuttle like people perceive them to be, give it the soundtrack it deserves. Like later in the video after the description of the gearbox etc :)
Okay thank you. As we always try to improve this exact 530i is seen in our latest video about the BMW e28 again. I think we already did what you said so you might like that video better.
That radio unit is designed for an E53, not an E39.
They actually share most of their dash.
@@DrivenbyDrivers yeah we share quite a bit of our DNA with chimps but that doesn't mean it's alright to mix with them
This is actually a aftermarket android headunit designed for the e39 and e53. The e53 ane e39 share their factory radios as well.
I suggest removing the music during commentary and when the engine is running as overlapping sound is quite distracting to the viewers and as enthusiast we love to hear the engine rev.
Nah, we like it
Can't hear the engine or the commentary well.
Hey man, there is a way of respectfully saying things like "the music is to loud" or "I can't hear the engine" and "TuRn oF tHe AnNoYiNg MuSiC dUdE.
We are open for tips and trics, critisism and opinions, but we like to treat and be treaten with respect and manners.
@@DrivenbyDrivers noted, and i have updated my comment to be more respectful, apologies.
Ty, much appreciated.
I have this car... so yes.
And if it's not, it's pretty close
Only the e39 528 is better!
