Hi all!

I'm considering buying an E34.

I'm already leaning toward a 540... but is the 530 close enough in performance to the 540 that finding that low mileage *perfect* 530 should sway me to that car?

I'm anticipating that the 540 has far more performance from it's larger engine, which should equate to a lot more
(torque) fun!

Also, are aftermarket suspension mods necessary to get rid of unwanted body lean or did BMW produce a "sports suspension" as standard on the 540 vs. the lesser 5ers?

feedback?

steve
