hey guys my name is mike and currently i drive a 2001 530i done up nicely but i want to get something newer. i want to get the 04 545i jetblack on black interior, maybe i'll get the SMG . can you guys give me any suggestions on these new 5er's. also i'm hoping when i get it i would want to get the M-tech body kit which is hard to find 545i's originally to come with in that body style. would you guys be able to help me out in the moding? like getting the M-tech allround body kit? oh and ya if could post some webistes where i can see what i can modify and compare the prices to my old bimmer. i am 99% sure i'll get a new bimmer over the summer. thank you guys for all your help.

Hey Mike. It's fate. I might have the car you're looking for....well except mine's Saphire Black and Steptronic instead of SMG. Look at the specs in my signature below. Here are a couple pics as well.

I'll PM you with my personal contact info as well and we can talk cars.

BTW, here's a pic of what the car used to look like. All you need is some wheels and suspension and the car is pretty much complete.

very nice 545. mtech is definitely the way to go. as for smg, i would pass on it due to reliability issue with high mileage bimmer unless you get the extended warranty.

EuroCarFan,
Was there a noticeable increase in power/performance with the Dinan mods?
