[s-cars] NAC: e28 ///M5 anyone?

[Theodore Chen]

Ooooh.... nice!

I've got too many cars myself, but will pass this on to a friend.  He sold his E28 M5 several years ago and has been kicking himself ever since.

Risking life and limb against moderator public stoning...  I'd want to know about it - soooooooooooo...

'88 e28 ///M5, 73k

Near <<<CHERRY>>> in some regards, needing slight attention in a couple others (cracked lower front valance, causing slight push-back to LF fender arch - not major but that's biggest faux pas).

Car runs / drives like a meelyun bucks.  Two, actually.  B&B cat back, sounds like a raped race car.  Paint is astoundingly clean for such an old car.   Interior is really nice considering age.  Not perfect but REALLY good compared to much of what I've seen.  New Conti's on amazing BBSs (OE).  Engine compartment looks *new*!

1,175 imported, not many 73k milers left... in this condition, unmolested.  Nope.  Uh uh.  And the ones that are around rarely are FS and when they are they're +$20k.  I'd guess this in the high-teens, find me if you're interested.

After 4yrs / 50k in mine, piloting this was a true treat for me 10yrs later.  Funny as I got mine (in '95!) with 70k, this was maaaaaaajor déjà vu for me.  Seeing it parked next to contemporary super-ish cars is kinda neat too - it seems soooooo small, and quintessentially styled.  Most amazing is how firckin *light* it is to hustle around.  And the enthusiast in you simply HAS to experience hearing one these come atchya WOT - the intake note (wailing banshee) is borderline RETAHDED!  SCHWING!

WAY DAMN COOL!

Sorry, I (obviously) have a soft spot for these - but know there's gamer enough of youses here to want to know.

Until The Man unleashes Wrath and Fury upon me, that is...

ps.  also a pretty darn rare Ming / Ecru '02 //S8 for anyone looking - uuuuuuuuuuber clean!
