We found this 2010 BMW 535i (E61<\/a>) on Bring a Trailer<\/a>. The wagon originally came with a twin-turbo 3.0 L N54B30 inline-six, six-speed automatic transmission, and xDrive AWD drivetrain. It is now powered by a naturally aspirated 5.0 L S85 V10<\/a> from a BMW E60 M5. Behind that is a six-speed manual transmission from a BMW E90 M3. A custom driveshaft connects to a limited-slip differential with a 4.10 ratio. The suspension uses KW coilovers in the front and KW shocks and Ground Control springs in the rear. The exterior features Black Sapphire Metallic (475) paint with E60 M5 front bumper cover and side mirrors. Inside the wells are Style 166 19-inch wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires. <\/p>\n
