While I'd really like a '97 (or later) 540 sport, I can't pull together the bucks, So-o-o-o-o, I'm looking at the '94-5 528 or 540. My questions:
What's the thinking about the V-8 engine problems in the earlier 540's?? Was it not really a problem?
If I DO get the 528, how can I spruce it up to perform better (chip, suspension, etc?. Is it not worth it, and should I take the chance with the 540 engine?
Suggestions as to finding that perfect white or blue car with low mileage?
Thanks to anyone who responds! Write to my e-mail, if you wish: rbmiller@ucdavis.edu
