Video of idle and exhaust sound from inside car. Note the check panel for Brake Lights, only does this occasionally. Brake lights work fine.

Reluctantly, I'm selling my immaculate E28 in order to fund my main project (2002). This car has been meticulously cared for in its lifetime and has had nothing but the best in service, maintenance, and repair. This would make a great weekend warrior for trips and Cars N Coffee type shows. Very comfortable, has great power left, shifts well, handles great but not too low, and gets a lot of attention when driving.


Highlights of Good

-M30B35 | 5 speed with factory LSD
-Royalblau Metalic with all new OEM euro bumpers and front valance purchased from Bluntech, painted at dealership
-New tires last month | Contintenal ProContact 205/55/16
-Sport interior in 7/10 or better shape
-Newer Magnaflow exhaust with Gibson tips
-Euro headlight and grill conversion
-Comes with TONS of additional spare parts and new OEM maintenance parts PLUS crackfree dash, spare euro headlights, OEM mud flaps, etc
-Heavily documented with receipts and Bentley manual
-Lowered on Eibach and Bilstein suspension
-Original spare keys in decent shape
-Original owners manual
-Full spare Style 29 included with good Yokohama tire


Highlights of Bad

-Cracked dash but has pad installed/ comes with crack free dash not installed
-Needs replacement front bumper center section or at least touch up paint (new center section included with car unpainted)
-Needs driver door hinge replacement (NLA) (included with car)
-Sunroof will not open. Makes clicking noise, have not investigated
-Small tear in driver seat leg bolster, seat really needs an overhaul in general
-Central door lock system not operational
-Driver floor mat needs to be replaced, comes with full set of all weather mats (universal)




Does need minor odds and ends repaired to be 100% again. The car will be serviced and cleaned before purchase and ready to drive anywhere. Would consider partial trades on 2002 parts plus cash. Car is located in Nashville, TN.

Interior pics would be nice. Also what color? From what I can see I am guessing Pearl Beige, but could also be Llama.

If we could sell the wife's van quick, I would be all over this and you are pretty close for once! Most vehicles I want are usually on one coast or the other. Not a hour away!!! Beautiful ride!!!

Thanks man. If you want to work something out, I'd be happy to. I've had a ton of interest in it, but everyone is cross country. Id really prefer to deal with a local. Let me know!

Also accepting partial trades on bang bang items if that helps.

Updated original post, cleaned up some info and added more, with a price drop for r3v members

[Eufonik]

Haha, damn. When I saw your reply, it really got me to pause and think for a moment about a trade, but I really love this little guy. I'm saving up to get myself a 5spd swap. GLWS again haha!

What a frickin nice car! I would really like to add this to my stable...if I had the space. Someone is getting a nice car.
