Re: The 535is is very cool - The 5 Series (E28) Message Board

Thanks!

I am estimating here but a quality releathering of both front and rear will be about $1000 to $1500. I've gotten one estimate for doing the fronts only (so far), that's $675 but I gotta take it to San Diego.

There are a lot of 5er nuts out there and parts for these cars are more plentiful than for our E24's. The cars drive excellent (this being my second 535is) and handle even better than our e24's do. I will say that the comfort of the ride is superior in the 6, along with the classic looks.

It'll serve me well for a daily driver for a year or 2.....then I'll be thinking TURBO! ;-]
