    New to me $500 525i

    I picked up this e34 from a neighbor that was going to donate it. It was oxidized, rotten tires, mouse nest in blower compartment, running rough and a few other little problems. The good news is that it has 103k miles and is a stick.
    After fixing all the issues on a very small budget I am now totally enjoying driving it. Reminds me of a big e30.
    I just bought some 16" e60 wheels with really nice michelin pilot tires for $200 and threw on some 12mm spacers.
    Trying to resist lowering it like most of my cars, it actually is nice to drive a stock car sometimes.
    Thanks for looking!:)

              Clean ride man! These cars make such great daily drivers. Almost have all the parts ready to swap my Touring to a manual. Touring currently has 170k, and my sedan that was a manual had 275k before the body went on it.
