Ive been looking around and have found 2 88 M5s close enough to me to catch my interest. One of them was being daily driven and one day just would not start, which leads me to believe the engine internals are still in good shape. It has been sitting for a little while though. I went to look at it and it looks to be pretty well cared for. I talked them down to 3k for it.
The other is advertised as a mechanically sound car that was driven daily for over 2 years then garaged and turned into a weekend car. From the pics the paint and interior also look to be in a little bit better shape than the other one. They want 4k for it BUT it has a salvage title. Havent gotten a chance to look at this one yet and its far enough away I would have to be pretty serious about it.
Basically what Im wondering is how the M5 will feel compared to an e30. And how much of a money pit I really am getting into here? Are the maintenance costs really that much higher on the M5? FWIW the other direction I would go is to turbo my 318is. Thanks in advance
