    FS: 1995 BMW Hellrot 540i/6 (slightly modded)

    Well I think the time has come. It took me a while to make this decision but I am looking to venture into something different. The E34 will be replaced by an S38 powered car. I would love to keep it but garage space will be tight. For the E34 folks that know me, I am not totally pulling out of the game yet - an E34 touring is to happen

    Whats offered for sale in this thread is a Hellrot (bright red) on parchment 1995 E34 540i with a manual 6 speed transmission, 1 out of 56 (total 1524 HE53).

    I have owned the car since 2009. I am the 4th owner. I have converted it to a complete M-Sport clone visually with original M-Sport front bumper, rear M5 bumper, M-tech mirrors, M3 steering wheel that came in that year.

    Mods are as follows:

    M-Sport front bumper - brand new from Germany
    M5 rear bumper
    M-Tech mirrors (they came first on the E34 before the M3 so its incorrect to call them M3 mirrors plus they are different in mounting)
    E36 M3 steering wheel
    Bilstein Sport/Vogtlands
    18'' staggered Rondell 58s
    Euro bumper trim
    Euro Bosch smilies headlights (never bothered wiring the switch for the electric adjusters, if you want it you can have it.)
    Clear tails, corners and sidemarkers
    3.15 LSD from an 1988 E32 750iL
    B&B triflow resonator and Magnaflow 14816 muffler
    E36 M3 Mishimoto Radiator
    E60 545i Short Shifter
    ZHP Weighted shift knob
    Rear headrest, map lights, rear storage all out of e32
    Black birdeye maplewood trim (came in 1993 E34 M5 in the US)
    M5 rear plate surround
    M5 shift surround
    E32 rear manual shade
    Shadow line

    Current reading on the odometer is a little shy of 178k. This used to be my daily driver. The sound of rumbling V8 makes my mornings! I have moved to an E28 as a DD now.

    Clean Texas title in hand.

    Located in Houston area.

    Maintenance as of last weekend (02/02/13):

    - Motor Mounts
    - Belts
    - WP pulley
    - Aluminium Thermostat Housing
    - New oil pressure inlet/outlet hoses
    - New oil return hose
    - New o-rings on those hoses and new WP gasket
    - Fresh oil, coolant and power steering fluid.
    - Brand new battery

    With that said the car is not for sale anymore. The right offer was not made so I am keeping the car for now.

    Oh dear lord, this is perfection. Just when I'm leaving the E34 world, you make me want to jump right back in by putting this up...ughh it hurts to look at, it's so pretty. This is a PERFECTLY specced 540.

    GLWS, not that you need it.

    Man if you still have this in March I'll jump all over it... thing is, I doubt you will...

    This car is one of a few that made me fall in love with E34s. You, sir, are a great inspiration. GLWS (but not until March... )

    Wow. Jaw-dropping visuals ITT. Beliq are you stepping into an M6 or M5? I saw you said S38

    You'll miss the M60's hydraulic valve lifters when you're bent over the S38 engine with the valve cover off doing the yearly valve adjustment :P

    M5 E28 most probably or I will break and take a couple of extra thousands loan and get a Euro E34 M5 in daytona

    Its time for a difference experience. The M60 has served me very well!

    I hear you, bud. Makes you wish and hope and pray, and, eventually, blow all your money lol.

    Hey Pavel I keep seeing your car when I'm hunting around on Craigslist. I get all excited but then realize I keep clicking on the same car lol.

    Way out of my budget, but beautiful car and good luck!
