THE OVERVIEW
Offered for an appreciating new owner is this 1987 BMW 535is E28 sedan!
Finished in "Diamantshwarz" metallic over bone, this 99.99% rust-free two owner California car shows just over 163,200 miles on its currently non-working odometer. [It has been sitting in storage for the past two years]. It sports a great running factory 182 horsepower 3.5 liter inline six cylinder engine mated to a 4 speed automatoc transmission with sport and winter mode selector, four wheel disc brakes with anti-lock [ABS], electric windows and sunroof, electric leather Recaro-sourced sport seats, front and rear "is"-spec spoilers, 17" one-piece throwing star wheels with decent rubber, updated cd stereo with working electric antenna, electric mirrors, cruise control. air conditioning and more.

THE BODY AND TRIM
The exterior of this car is in GOOD/DECENT99.99% RUST-FREE DRY AND CLEAN CONDITION THROUGHOUT! The paint finish sports a very good overall shine with a dented/scraped area on right front corner, a small dent on rear corner along with severalrock nicks, scuffs scratches, clear-coat peeling and faded spots. The good news is that this California specimen is as close to 100% rust-free as you will find in a 30 year-old classic E28!

THE INTERIOR
As I hope is articulated in the photos here, the interior of this 1987 BMW is in good VERY original condition overall. The headliner, door panels and carpets are in good condition, all of the gauges and controls work well. Known imperfections include the ABS light on intermittently, small section of material missing atop the driver side door panel, driver seat side bolster all messed up, some minor heat cracking on the vinyl dash, some light wear/tear and cracking on the other seat leather, A/C not blowing cold, gear shift lever is loose and the aforementioned odometer not functioning. Also the tools are missing and the style 5 spare wheel could use a new tire installed.

THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE
This classic BMW starts perfectly with very good running engine, good shifting transmission, good solid braking [but needs the typical hydro accumulator replaced], good tight steering and nice balanced handling. There is some typical guibo wear producing a light shudder under hard acceleration in first gear. Overall, this budget-priced classic still provides a satisfying driving experience.
