Eagle 1662 Report post Posted January 12, 2014 Very tidy alright but i think it only appeals to certain people at the price probably got it at, not exactly a sort after model either. Seems it could of done with a bit more use if anything. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil-540i 166 Report post Posted January 12, 2014 Yea, I dunno - I've started to look at the E28's in a whole new light the last coupla months, & I think in some ways for me personally, I'm now at the stage where I'd prefer one over a E30............ 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nath 134 Report post Posted January 13, 2014 Photoshopped photos a bit? Perfectly good car is though, and would be ruined by an M30 transplant. 2.7 is an interesting engine and as a classic it is essential that the car retains its originality. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tony2657 5 Report post Posted January 25, 2014 So far I've spent about $8k (including the purchase price) on my '83 528i with 120,000 miles on the clock. Based on this listing, perhaps I wasn't so stupid after all. E30s seem overpriced. E28s are more comfortable and better looking (especially on nice wheels and lowered a bit) IMO. Look at Matt's http://bimmersport.co.nz/topic/37489-e28-535i-project/?hl=%2B535i+%2Bproject. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Matt_ 42 Report post Posted January 25, 2014 But your paint job is old and you have poo green interior dad, the OP looks to be at the right price at the moment. 7.5k is a good deal for an honest straight E28 with crazy low kms, strong but not super uneconomical engine, desirable interior and options. I wouldn't be surprised if it gets close to 10k. However, photos can be deceiving and i'd have to view it to know what I'd pay, photos can hide a lot of things...

Eagle 1662 Report post Posted January 25, 2014 Thats been on tm for years so the guy can't be in a rush to sell it. I don't think its even worth 1\2 what he asking, its not even mint to start with and thats before viewing it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_Matt_ 42 Report post Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) To bad it's a toyota engine, average interior, rep wheels, and lacklustre grey. It's been on TM for a long time I don't think he wants any less that 10k Edited January 25, 2014 by _Matt_ 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
