If it is a real Dinan turbo, it's seems it's a steal. You can part out the 50 state legal turbo system for ~ that much. It seems really cheap for this if it's real. I wonder if the thing is absolutely ratty example.

'88 535is Dinan Turbo Final Edition


I would like to know how to tell if this car is a real Dinan turbo model (if there is such a thing)? Are they worth more than a regular one ? I have found one for sale for 13,500.00 w/100K on the car and 50K on the rebuilt engine w/all upgrades including the crank and intercooler by Dinan. It has 17" wheels, upgraded brakes and suspension. This third owner has most of the receipts. The car did have a complete re-paint including color change to dark green metalic. The receipt for this was 9K aprox. seven years ago. Would this lessen the value? Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks Jeff.
