Finally - E34 540it coming my way
[IMG]540IT - Driver side[/IMG]

Its been a long wait - coming from Japan as they didn't import them to Canada, even get some racing dynamic wheels. 80 K km. Black on Black. I'm slightly excited.

Thanks to Derek at pacific http://pacificcoastjdm.com/

Sexy as hell dude... I would be excited as well..

Your going to have to do a serious photo shoot when she gets here, and as some of you may have gathered, I love the M60B40 motor to bits...

Looks like the Racing Dynamics logo goose.

And the M60B40 is a great engine.. just need a few parts from it for my B30 to make it up there with it in power.. so anyone know of any 540's for parts from 95-97 hit me up

Thanks for the feedback - waiting for this thing is killing me - will load up some good pics when she lands........ I think she is a keeper. That is racing Dynamics on the badges. It has 18" RD wheels.

Hello!!

Do you know what boat it's coming on yet?? It might be on the same boat as my 525i Ltd I bought a few weeks ago

Looks great. I almost went for a 540i touring as well...was a tough choice
