Somebody snatch this beauty up! This car retailed for like $58,000 new!
The 6 speed manual BMW 540i delivers one of the best V-8s on earth, a 4.4-liter/282-horsepower DOHC jewel that (thanks to its 310 pound-feet of torque available across a wide rpm band) feels like more. Lots more. 0 - 60 mph in 5.6 seconds, and the quarter mile in 14.0 seconds at 100.7 mph.

Not too bad, it's about 3,700lbs. The 07 335i makes almost the same power and weighs 150lbs less than the 540i. Either way, both are nice cars, but that 540i is a lot of car for only $6,500 compared to a newer 335i that would be like $30k. Car payments and boost, or V8 grunt free and clear... Whatever you prefer I guess!
