    FS: 1990 535i 5-speed

    Time has come to sell this car. I'm selling it solely because I don't need two cars, not because of any mechanical problems.

    $5400, will consider other offers.

    The engine drives strong with normal compression across all cylinders. Doesn't burn oil, doesn't leak coolant, and doesn't leak PS fluid. The tires and suspension work makes this thing handle "like whoa", it's almost impossible to break traction.

    More pictures will be added later of the door panels and headliner:

    Recent maintenance includes:

    • new control arm bushings
    • new subframe bushings
    • new fuel filter
    • new air filter
    • recent oil change
    • new front brakes (rear brakes not installed yet, would be included though)
    • new brake fluid and bleed
    • replaced driveshaft for a custom-built one with replaceable u-joints

    Pirelli PZero Nero M+S; 245/40, 265/35

    Interior:

    vinyl shift console

    rear speaker deck

    center console (to delete phone)
    headliner

    5.25" Pioneer Premier speakers (rear)

    Drivetrain:

    E.A.T. performance chip
    UUC Evo short shifter
    custom-built driveshaft with replaceable u-joints

    Suspension:

    H&R Sport springs
    Bilstein shocks
    750i control arm bushings

    Brakes:

    EBC Green Stuff brake pads
    ATE OE rotors



    Known problems:

    • rear brakes are squeeky because they haven't been replaced yet. Replacement rotors and pads will come with the car.
    • shifter is sloppy only when in gear (meaning you can move it around; still shifts fine though) which will annoy people that play with the knob while driving.
    • headliner, door panels, center console (not installed), rear seat, and the speaker deck are all from a later model e34. These cars had a different shade of tan, so some parts of the interior look slighty off compared to parts that aren't replaced. Nothing huge, just something the perfectionist should know.
    • the door panels have a different wood grain pattern on them than the dashboard and glovebox. I still have the old door panels, so the pieces are easily replaceable if the flaw bugs you.
    • driver's seatbelt doesn't retract all that well, so I have a replacement belt that will be included.
    • driver's door lock cylinder is worn, so maybe once-a-week, the doors will not unlock if you attempt to open them from that side. Keyless entry would probably be your first mod anyways.

                  Buy your own!

                  These are replicas, $710 shipped isn't all that bad :)


                  The car will include the original ellips, and a stripped down M30 block if want to build one up.

                  Thanks for the bump G-Money.
