1995 BMW 5 Series 540i review from North America
"4-door sports car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Everything was great until a few thousand miles ago. Then the clutch had to be replaced and shortly after that I needed a new radiator.
General comments?
Great performance and handling. Most kids in their Integras and so forth don't expect a stock BMW to be so fast.
