(Sold) 1988 535I cirrus blue/pearl beige - $23k

Post by razmgarc »

Hi everyone,

This is my first time posting here, and I'm thrilled to introduce my 1988 BMW 535i, which I purchased from Mr. Andy Haynes here earlier this year. Following its purchase and subsequent delivery, our living situation took an unexpected turn, prompting me to list the car at a local auto gallery. I can't emphasize enough how fantastic this car is. It's incredibly well-preserved, and I was truly amazed at its condition. Andy even overhauled the air conditioning, which now blows ice-cold air.

I specifically sought out a car that was mechanically sound and required no work, allowing me to focus solely on cosmetic improvements. If you're in the market for such a car, this is the perfect choice. I bought it intending to use it as a daily driver for a few months until garage season arrived. My goal was to find a project car that wasn't really a project, and this 535i fit the bill perfectly. The paint (orginial) is in near impeccable condition for its age, with no cracking or crazing in the clear coat. It looks stunning in the sunlight and even in less flattering lighting conditions.
Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions. I'm listing the car for its purchase price but am open to reasonable offers. You can find the link to the auto gallery listing below. The list price there was not my idea; I informed them that I was hoping to recoup what I paid, but they decided to list it for much more.

Don't hesitate to contact me with any inquiries or to arrange a viewing. Thank you for your interest!

Best regards,

Cyrus

I spoke to who I guess at this point was the previous owner of this car back in the spring when I was looking for an e28. He said the transmission had been rebuilt by Metric Mechanic. Seemed like a nice car from what I remember but pretty far out of my price range unfortunately. The e12 bumpers are an interesting touch. GLWS
