    Default 1994 BMW 540iL?

    Does anyone know the difference(s) between the 540i and the 540iL?

    Thanks.

    L is for long wheelbase (meaning a few extra inches in the back seats), but I was unaware that they ever made a long-wheelbase 5-series. I've only seen it on 7s. Huh! Learn something new every day!

    Default Never heard of a 540iL...

    There is a 740iL where the L is for the long wheelbase.

    The difference is that somebody accidentally typed an "L" at the end of one of the model designations.

    That's a standard-wheelbase E34, and there was not an "L" version made AFAIK.

    Jeff,

    Not too rare. I have a 1995 530 in that same color with 154,000 miles on it.
