    Default New member here saying hi.

    Well after lurking a while and gathering a TON of information/research on e34's in general I finally bought one and felt like I could now join in on the fun here. A sweet 535iM popped up on ebay in my home state and I jumped on it.
    Specs are: 1991, Manual, Blk/Blk, ASC, Mtech wing, Style 10's, illegal tint, and get this, only 58k miles on it! It's in really good shape inside and out. The paint needs to be clayed and rewaxed badly, engine needs to be degreased, interior is in good shape, the valves tick (go figure), some annoying electrical issues (radio, reverse lights), 55mph shake, but other than that, its a great car. I'll post some pics up from the PO and hopefully get time to detail the car soon and get some proper pics up for you all. Looking forward to annoying you all asking questions about how to do things, after searching first that is.

    -Nick

    welcome,

    just sold the wife's 535iA and we had a valve adjustment done before selling, and it was a night and day experience when we got it back. 121k miles, and indy said every one was out, when normally it's 2 or 3. Came back purring like a cat and pulling like a lion. Practically a mod....

    careful with your degreasing...can be a little like russian roulette..no high pressure h2o
