This is my 1987 535i, I'm selling just because i'm sort of bored of the car. I would like to see $3500 or so If I cannot get that amount of money for the car i'm going to simply keep it.The body is very straight, very minimal rust(spot on inside of driver door). This car is 5 speed manual, and feels great to drive. Here are some of the parts that were replaced, and a bit of the work that has been done; however, im sure there is much more.
- [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]Battery[/COLOR][/COLOR] recently replaced.
- Plugs, wires, cap, rotor, coil. Were replaced not to long ago.
- Clutch, throwout bearing, yolk, pressureplate were all replaced recently.
- 16" BBS alloys
- Falken ziex z-rated tires (less than 2000 on them)
- Whole interior was exchanged, (was burgandy) Including dash
- Pioneer cd player with ipod plugin and remote
- Polk MOMO 4"x6" plate front speakers
- Alpine type s rear speakers
- Aftermarket wire was run to the aftermarket speakers
- Alpina springs (heard they were 400lbs?)
- KYB gas-adjust shocks
- Dogbones are new
- 740li front and rear calipers, and front rotor

- 7 series hood shocks.
- New strut tower mounts and hardware.
- New brake pads, and new e-brake [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]shoes[/COLOR][/COLOR].
- Exhaust was replaced within 6000 (including CAT)
- All exhaust hangers and gaskets were replaced
- Guibo, and center bearing were replaced on the driveshaft.
- Engine gaskets and seals, as well as hoses have all been replaced
- [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]Belts[/COLOR][/COLOR] recently done.(Good quality too)
- New ignition switch
- Megasquirt newest board,
- Innovative lc-1 with triple pod gauges on dash

- FPR, thermo-time switch, coolant temp switch were recently replaced, [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]thermostat[/COLOR][/COLOR].
-Gearshift is custom made(I made it) the bushing is a bronze one I also made. Feels great.
- All filters are new (Air, oil, fuel).
- All steering parts from the box were very recently replaced
- New Bosch 19LB injectors.
- Shadowlined trim, windows, tailight, rear bumper (The door trim is factory shadowlined)
- Heatercore was just replaced.
- Oil was changed every 3,000 with Valvoline 20w50 while I owned it
Here are some of the bads.
- I don't know the exact mileage due to many bad odometers, however the compression is 170 within 1 across all cylinders, and leak down test was within spec.
- It could really use some paint, it's not peeling or anything it's just flat.
- The rear passanger wheel his a bit of curb rash(I may get around to fixing it)
-Rear (back) seat has tears at the top, and could really use a replacement
- [COLOR=blue ! important][COLOR=blue ! important]Ac[/COLOR][/COLOR] was deleted
- PO removed Cruise control
I just want to say even though I have done a lot of work this car its still 20+ years, so i'm not saying this car is perfect by any means. I think if you continue my work on this car you can have a very fun car, that you can enjoy for a long time to come. Here are some PICS If you have any questions, be sure to send me a pm or ask my in this thread. Thanks for looking!
