Opinions on this car

[E30Kohl]

I want to buy it and daily drive it, Ive always loved the E32s and Im pretty sure this is the one I want, I would be keeping my 325is too, anyone seen this car before?

It really looks like his car. I'd stay away from the big 7 for a used daily, electronic gremlins will eat your wallet.

do it. 5-speed 7-series, ha! i always wished my wife's old E23 745i was a 5-speed.

You're probably better off with an e34 for a comfortable daily. It's like an e32 but better looking.

Then again to each his own.

Its worth a look just for the 5spd. Id rock it!

Thanks, I know the E34 is a better idea but I like how the E32 looks alot better, I was also thinking E28 535is

O.P, Front suspensions are weak on these cars,

but that one is 5sp...i would get it. :pimp:

:(

Nice! Are those ACS wheels? How heavy is it?, cause I imagine that the e32 isnt so great in the corners. If your looking for a lighter car go with the e34 (or e30 4 door), but if that doesnt matter to you, get this car- its a good deal.

An E28 535 is definitely the way to go. With the right suspension, these cars are a lot of fun... even with the stock suspension, they're still a lot of fun! I used to autoX mine and would regularly embarrass many "sports cars". Build quality is fantastic (except for creaking rear doors on almost every one), reliability for a DD is excellent (as long as maintenance is done) and the motor / tranny - as you probably know - are bulletproof. It's basically like a slightly larger E30 4 door.

Can't say I would recommend an E32 5 speed other than for the coolness / rarity factor. I owned an E34 535 5 speed, and no offense to anyone here, this car was as boring as they come. Lifeless steering, acres of sound insulation, and over-servo'd brakes all conspired to make this a snoozer. I can't imagine an E32 would be any different except in size and weight.

Ive decided to buy it, Crivellone and I drove it tonight and there was almost nothing wrong with it, just a sagging headliner and a minor exhaust leak, the transmission is a Getrag 280 out of an E34 M5, everything in it works perfectly.
