OT...buyer killed my joy.....

[Michael C.]

Hi all, as you may have read,i just purchased my first E34 last week (95 540i6 sport)...what an amazing vehicle...but thats a different story.....
I could only do this deal if i sold my E28 ///M5, which i did (or so i thought...).The buyer backed out of the deal (looong story).
Now i'm stuck w/ 2 awsome cars.....(huh, imagine that,"Stuck" w/ theses two cars ).
Now comes the REALLY hard part.....i need to sell one of these cars,i would preffer to sell the E28 ///M5 ( i really,really like the 95 540i6).
I don't know what to do....any advice?,any buyers out there?

That is an ultra fine E-28 M5.
How much for the E-28, how many miles, how long have you owned it and where are you located?
Original paint?
Thanks,
George

Might as well throw it on ebay, autotrader, cars.com, Roadflea, Turner classifieds, BMW CCA online classifieds & see what happens. As much as I like E28s, I'd rather see another E34 at the track . . .

A very nice car Michael....not overly modded and relatively low mileage for its age. Care to share your asking price with members on this forum?
Thanks,
George

Micheal, I think you had already made your decision, it's just that something you hadn't anticipated now "makes" you have to reconfirm (or reconsider) your original decision.

Your E28 is a very nice car...no doubt about it! But for a second, pretend there was no badging on either you E28 or E34, and you weren't allowed to peek under the hood of either... Driving both of them, which one gives you that unremovable-grin for the most of your driving spectrum?

An M-car has a special blend of exclusivity in combination with excellent power and performance. Your 540i/6 does not have the "peer-recognized" exclusivity of an M-car, but how does its physical power and performance grab you, an M E28 v. M(-) E34? I don't pretend for a second that my 540i/6 is an M5, but it probably is not that far off the mark in performance and power (having recently done brake pads, as an example, I was impressed with the "almost-M" sized rotors and calipers...heck, the rear ventilated disks of my 540 are bigger than the front rotors on my Jetta!!!)

Post pics of the new beast and we'll help you through this. Consider Mark D'Sylva's offer to win a chip if you buy one now...1 in 7 odds of getting it free are pretty good!

Something tells me you're having fun with the 540i/6 though...

Cheers,
Duey

Good luck!

Mike, glad to hear you got the 540. I'm jealus. Anyone who buys yr will be very happy with it as I know how you've taken care of it. Good luck.

I will post some pix asap...prolly later today or Sunday (don't have my digi w/me).
