  • PNW - stanced BMW E39 528i manual, rare color, needs motor

    I just bought back my old E39 from a girl who didnt know that she was driving around with only 1 quart of oil, rather than 7. Blown motor. Now that I have the car, Im not sure that Im up for the task of a motor swap or have the time needed to do so. The motor has 200 lbs of compression in the first cyl, and 0 in the rest, can rebuild it, but it would be easier to just swap another M52 or go big, V8!!

    Anyways, this may be better off in the hands of someone with more time and experience than I.

    here are the specs:
    -1997 BMW E39 528i with 150k, blown motor
    -manual 5-speed tranny with new clutch about 20k ago
    -Stock rare Aubergin paint, good condition
    -Aubergine leather interior in good condition, but showing signs of wear on the seat bolsters
    -Bav-auto coilovers, its raised up 2" from when I drove it last, but will go down about 3" all around
    -Magnaflow exhaust with stock resonator delete
    -Full cooling system replaced, including Stewart water pump, t-stat, all belts, hose, tensioners, fan clutch, ect in my ownership about 25k ago
    -full front suspenson replacement same time
    -newer brakes
    new headlamp lenses with smoked corners
    -18x8/9 Stern wheels, curbed by PO, but no bends or cracks
    -MZ3 shift lever with about 40% shorter throw, weighted E46 ZHP shift knob
    -20% tint all around
    -Clean title, clean history

    I have found used M52 motors with about 120k for $500-$1500 with 3 year warranties, or go V8!

    Open to trades, part trades, or $3500. Located in Port Angeles, WA.
