Guest Simon* Report post Posted February 11, 2009 What about Rowan in Chch? Isn't he "535er" on here? He had a tidy manual 535 on Schnitzers on TM for ages. Have no idea if it sold but someone could dig up his FS thread here Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr E34 11 Report post Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) None of those 525i's are the sport model, haven't seen one in NZ, UK only got them i think....Brent Hartge may know This is a E34 525i sport: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/890915.htm The best all round package in an E34 is the 540is (6 speed M package) $10-15k Next is the 535is Then the 525i sport stock 525i autos M20 wouldn't be worth much, 2k. The 535is is a gas guzzler when only used for city driving & the manual can be a bit clumsy at low speed, brilliant high speed cruiser & i mean high speed for a 3.4 ltr 2 valve engine. The 525i is a balance between economy & some useful pwr but a tad low on torque.......good car if you intend using as a daily etc (M5 is a diff kettle of fish again) edit: or just get a 540ia (auto) Edited February 11, 2009 by mr E34 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
