Rust Free West Coast Car/3.4L I6/Getrag 5-Speed Manual/H&R Springs/Great Cruiser

1987 BMW 5-Series Sedan Additional Info:

1987 BMW 535i Sedan For consignment, a BMW 535-I series 4 door sedan in very well kept condition. This executive coach is from the West Coast and sports some upgrades within its white skin. These include but are not limited to H&R lowering springs, Bilstein shocks, 15-inch BBS Style 5 wheels, Ventus Noble 2 tires, and an aftermarket AM/FM/CD stereo. All maintenance was done regularly during this consignor's short time of possession. Exterior The factory design remains and here we see a raked inward blackened grille with dual headlights on either side and a kidney bean shaped chromed center. A shiny bumper is below and has a black band protecting its outer mid edge. Fog lights are mounted below this bumper to guide your way on those foggy nights. White painted steel abounds and has a few chips and scratches throughout the well minded gap slabs of the sides and doors as well as the hood. The roof has a power sunroof and clear glass for the passenger compartment. The back of the car uses a standard trunk design with a small roll as it descends to the tail lighting which is dual strips in horizontal format. Another shiny bumper brings up the rear and it too has the rubber band around it. 15-inch BBS style cast spoked wheels are all around and show areas on the edges where they have been curbed. Interior Entree vous or should I say Treten Sie in.....where we see black molded vinyl uppers, blue molded framing and a perforated vinyl padded insert with this frame of vinyl. An armrest/pull and actuator is on the perforated padding. 2 wide bodied medium high back buckets draped in dark blue leather have some light tuck and roll with stitching and show some wear as good quality leather tends to do with use. There are no cracks or gaps, just some folds. In the center console are the power window buttons and the shifter. In back is a wide 2 plus 2 bench with a fold down armrest also in blue padded leather. These chairs float on blue carpeting slightly faded in front. The dash is black vinyl and has an ovoid dash cluster with round gauges underneath an arched eyebrow. A center control panel is above the console and here is an aftermarket AM/FM/CD radio and the climate controls. A blue vinyl glove box and wide padded black dash top is in front of the passenger. A gray headliner in felted broadcloth is hanging tightly above and does a wonderful job of framing the power sunroof. Drivetrain Under the age hood we see the 3.4 liter inline 6 cylinder engine with a recent valve adjustment according to the consignor. It has EFI and a 5-speed Getrag 265 manual transmission. On the back is a 3.25 rear axle to handle the tire turning duties. Save for insulation on the underside of the hood things are fairly clean with slight corrosion on the aluminum parts around the engine. Undercarriage Underneath we see plenty of textured and faded undercoating. Some road dirt is within the cracks and crevices of the texturing. No real rust, (even surface rust), is seen. Independent 4 wheel Macpherson strut suspension is all around and it works with H&R lowering springs and Bilstein shocks to keep this sedan glued to the road like a cat on carpet. Power disc brakes are on all 4 corners and the factory style exhaust handles the exhale with ease. Drive-Ability The car fired right up and on the test track performed beautifully. Here it exhibited good handling, nice acceleration, and was a comfy cruiser. I noticed the heater blower would not blow and the driver's power mirror was still and unadjustable. Harken back to the luxury of 1987 where cars could cruise on the Autobahn at a cool 140mph all day and expensive ones even faster. Think of it literally like an airplane in the ground. Here in the USA you would have a difficult time doing that but people realized and wanted German engineering and quality so they bought these luxury liners. This one is a driver quality car with no rust and still holds its own. Fahrvergnügen.
