should i? ix for e34 530I

[rustybullet]

so a guy wants to trade is e34 530i for my 88ix. its a tough choice as i like my ix alot. but i have always loved 34's are there any things to watch out for on them?

[ButtJuice]

keep it. Save money to buy an e34 later on because the ix is getting harder to find

[MikeDE]

No...keep the iX.

[brutus87]

Keep the ix.
But then again a 530 with the six speed, and sport seats is badass.

[bimmer630]

But its the lame duck 3.0 v8. I hate those things. Keep the IX

[mattdk318i]

yea, just say no to that POS V8.

[rustybullet]

at the moment im kinda leaning towards keeping the ix. i know im going to regret it once winter hits again. i mean i guess i would be getting the same gas mileage by the looks of it lol.

Keep the ix.

No 6 speed with the M60B30.

Honestly I dont think a 530 is worthing trading a ix for.

Front end suspension is a big issue on e34's once they get old. Control/Thrust Arms, +all bushings are gonna need to be replaced at some point if they havent been already.

I'm not at all familiar with M60's so i dont know what their quirks are.
But If you want a e34 535i or 540i is the only way to go, IMO. My 535i was the most badass car I've ever had

530i sucks, i've owned one.

[quickervicar]

The E34 is a wonderful car to drive. Just not with that engine.

Keep the ix.

[nando]

there's a reason he wants to trade. his car sucks, yours doesn't.
