My brother thinks his car is god

Well, here it is... BMW 540i. In my opinion it is ugly. Everything from the color to the body style.

The emblem is usually white/blue... but it looks like someone painted the white with red nail polish.

It even has lambo doors to provide more authentic chinese cooking!

He bought it off of some puerto rican his father knows.

It may just be me, but I think I see numerous dents on the doors. Money should have been spent in shaping up the body panels than on the kit and lambo doors. *sigh* Some people

Not trying to start trouble but was it really necessary to state that the car was purchased from "some puerto rican". What does the man's nationality have anything to do with the car itself?

You have a good point, but what ever comes from this, please keep it clean.

BTW, I never like that style, but for some reason I do like the M3's in that body style.

I think it would be *ok* if it didnt have those body kits.. the thing I cant stand is that most people on here diss other body kits.. but sometimes when there is a *** body kit for the 06 civic *the raven? on ebay* some people like it >_<

I absolutely adore the 5 series BMWs. But, that car is doing 5series a major disservice. You know what? Post a nother picture or too so I can really make a decision.


I agree with Fujibluesi and JrFish007. We really don't need to know that the car was purchased from "some puerto rican". That sounds like a cloaked insult.

those 5series cars are a beautiful car from the factory. its a classy car IMO.
this one is a little over the top but someone put thought and time and money into it to make it how THEY liked it. Props to them for that. Heaven forbid every car was the same.

If his 540i was a 2003 model, I might have agreed with him.

I think the body kit in the front looks OK, but I'm not diggn the side skirts...
And the lettering on the front bumper doesn't look centered...
Otherwise it's a nice color. :)
