540i

[1992 BMW 535i]

Guys, I am seriously considering this vehicle:

What do you guys think?

I like the color and the wheels. They are very nice cars but lean a little more toward luxury and away from sport. Would you be keeping the e34?

Here's mine:

Gorgeous!

Those wheels are hella nice- made by BBS too. I don't like how the e39 looks in lighter colors- If I were to buy one it'd be black or dark blue/green.

Saw one just like that yesterday only had 54k on it. Beautiful car. I really liked the color combination. Looks just "rich" as hell. My tech wanted me to drive it but I did not want to get another version of BMW disease on top of the 535 disease I am already afflicted with!

This car does not have the niikisil issues and such. The throw for the shifter is quite long but that is easily fixed. Very luxurious inside.

Price seems ok right now on the bay.

Sharkman, as an American, I can bring the vehicle here without a problem. BMW made their cars universal - California emissions legal everywhere...
