belts, hoses, minor maintenance stuff and the car should be good to go.
replace struts with a set of bilsteins and you're gold.
i dont think the turbos had the IMS issue like the NA cars did.

That MT Cayman is sick. I've driven my friend's same gen GTS and they're such balanced cars with an awesome soundtrack.
For 60k, that or an 1M. Hmmm...

See it this way
if the 911 C4 goes 4 cylinder... its essentially a WRX driven backwards.

Moreso the feels and sensations, eg. sound, top down, look, etc.

but the overall feel is more rewarding with the NA car sound.
im pretty excited that the new spyder is coming out with the detuned GT3 4.0L....
coming to a tofu garage near you.

you are correct on that 535i sir!! That appears to be the “right” one for anyone looking for a fast mid-sized sedan. A few bolt on mods could deliver hp close enough to an e60 M5 with only a moderate drain on your wallet from the N54 engine, instead of the money gushing out of it as one tries to keep the S85 V10 running.
I want to buy that white 535i so badly! There is something wrong with me, I may need professional help!

Ya wasn't that for sale for 28888? I know that dealership, they have a lot of nice cars but some are rebuilds so I'd do my due diligence.

yea i think it was around 28k
if clean title, car doesnt look too bad and the claims are crazy i think this is a lot of horsepower for the money....
Just software alone and you have a 500hp+ machine! And this one has the much needed LSD as well.
