    Nope, none of the e34's had the wide grille until '94 and the 525 didn't get it until '95.

    All 530's & 540's had wide grilles starting from '93 (here in Oz).
    525's got the wide grille here in '94.

    As far as I was aware all the V8 E34's were released with wide grilles (inc those in the U.S.)
    So are you saying the U.S. didn't get V8 E34's until '94?

    To avoid confusion ... SS525i = Jimmyjoe's better half ... who actually gets to drive the e34 every day

    $7500 .... plus he forgot to mention that it came with another set of Moda BBS wheels with new snow tires on them

    I know all the 530's and 540's had the wide grille. I just didn't know any were sold as '93 models. So you could buy a '93 530 or 540 in the US?
