1998 BMW 5 Series Sedan 540i 4dr Sedan
Wonderful Car, Not so nimble
 It's a beautiful car, and BMW does an 
excellent job thinking of luxury 
details. The pickup is wonderful, but 
the handling around sharp curves is 
not as nimble as a sports car. It's a 
true sports sedan, and perhaps the 
best one you can buy. The 6-speed 
manual is a rocket!
 I had a number of minor electronic 
glitches (ghosts). Sunroof stopped 
working here and there, then started, 
etc. It was enough to make me a bit 
nervous about its reliability. But I 
must say, they were minor issues.
