Good place to find E34?

[shiftbmw]

Where's a good place to find a decent E34 540i/6 or 535i/5? Craigslist has been failing me and I need something for daily driver status. Any good forums or places to look for one of these things in the bay?

look on bimmerforums..

i've been looking too. bimmerforums has been a failure so far

Too bad you're on the wrong coast. There's a pretty decent looking 535i/5 on Boston Craigs for like 6 bills.

If I wasn't so damn responsible it would probably already be sitting in my driveway.

craiglist is the best place. It's really hard to find a nice one for some reason.

This looks good if you can talk him down on price. http://www.bimmernut.com/forum/showthread.php?t=42436

You could have bought mine if you were a few months earlyer.

There was a sweet E34 540i/6 up in the north bay that I offered 4k for. They said no, and sold it for 3500 one week later... Had 140k, pretty damn clean.

Damn that is a good deal. I think I sold mine for 3600 I think but it was a 525i.

Hard to find manual E34s, I think if I were to get one I would try to find an M540i which are usually better taken care of than the run of the E34. I think I will just convert my car next time I blow that crap GM unit to pieces again.

For the kind of coin an M-Sport commands nowadays, may as well just buy the M5.

bf.c and craigs are the best bet. searchtempest.com allows you to search multiple cities, states, whatever on craigslist at once.

I'm looking for a black m50 auto e34, ideally something with a blown motor (s50 auto e34 would be a nice daily).

if I see anything that looks like something you might want I'll let you know. Are you in Nor or So cal right now?
