BMW V6 540 Type R spotted in So Cal
Figure I would share some nice eye candy. Drool! Spotted this today, granted it is an older model (90's 540) in terms of automotive history but still-tacky! Had I been quick enough another photo would have been a silver SC430 spotted in Compton,lowered, but with pink 22's!

.....540i had the V8???? you sure it was a 6 on that badge and not an 8? Even some 530i had a 3L V8, the other variant was a 3.5L I6

Not bad
Actually, I'd rather see that than the new 5 series with body kit, single dual exhaust badged as //M5-what a loser
By the way, are those CB antennaes or some sort???

I'm pretty sure all 540i's were V8s. The early 530i was a small V8 and then the later ones were the I-6 from the 3 series.

You pegged it, the V6 emblem appeared to be from a Honda. The 3 antennas just add a bit of flare.

I wonder what the driver was thinking when he/she krazy glued those sills and badges on.

haha, ghetto, someone stole those door sills off a Type R. Also good to hear the drug trade is still flourishing in compton for that lucky SC owner.
