    Cool. If you're going to modify something, do it right. Wish it was in the UK...!

    If you're going to dump that kind of cash into a station wagon why not swap out the automatic?

    Also the 13.9 1/4 mile doesn't seem right.

    Default 13.9 1.4 is just under what stock E39 540's are doing.....

    With just minor exhaust and chips...

    On this site, here are similar E39's that are not tourings, getting id 12's 1/4 mile... http://www.bmw540ifun.com/Dynos&QtrMile.htm

    But notice how he didn;t show a pic of the engine? Why wouldn't you have a pic of the engine if you state it is Dinan S/C'd and worked on by "Steve" himself....

    Just odd
    E34 540iA sold 1/06

    Exactly what I was thinking. How can you advertise a supercharged car and not put a pic of the engine on there?

    I think the car is beautiful, but looks like a $$$ pit for maintenance, and 13.9 seconds is NOT impressive for a supercharger!!!
    You guys are on to him... let's ask him some questions....
