I'll post more pictures later on. Honestly the car needs nothing other than speakers, a deck, and a new center console. It's fairly clean inside out :D

5 speed E34 525i!!!

Has a couple issues not in ad...

Sunroof and Locks don't work with the windows, a quick research shows the fusible links are most likely the cause. Also missing the back seat bottom.

So much want...

I found the ratios didn't match the powerband very well, but that was an m5.

Well when it's that new, of course you won't need to spend money on repairs

westopher 12-04-2016 07:56 PM

Me and thumper owned the same car at the exact same time. Regardless I will rephrase, the car never needed a single repair.

Please share - what was your experience, what major issues, what expensive repair, what to look for in that generation? This one in particular was comparably cheaper than others listed of that year/generation. Most were like $8500-$10,000.

westopher 12-04-2016 08:06 PM

Cam follower, FPR, oil consumption and fuel pumps are the major documented issues plaguing that Gen.
Mine had none of those issues, but it seems I got lucky.
