In Reply to: Very Nice 1987 BMW 535is For Sale. Pictures. posted by Tim in Eastern PA on June 06, 2001 at 11:42:38:


Hello Friends,
Well, as I promissed, I am parting with my 1987 BMW 535is. Need to sell to buy M5. Many of you have seen the pictures, and some of you have seen and driven the car. You will be hard pressed to find another 535is that runs better. I can swear that it runs like a car with 4000 miles. Right before I bought it, a New head was installed (I mean new - Valve, Cam, Lifters, EVERYTHING!) along with a
New driveshaft
Guibo
ISV
Heater Valve
Rear Subframe Bushings
Front rotors
Front pads
Control arm bushings.

After I bought it, I had to go further and install -
New Pitman Arms (Dogbones)
New Rear Trans Seal
New Shift Linkage Seal
New Oiler Bar Banjo Bolts And Washers
New Valve Cover Gasket
Brand New Factory Anthrecite Mats
New Windshield
New Windshield Gasket
New Windshield Chrome Trim
New sway bar links.
New Taillight Gaskets
New Trunk Gasket
New Cap
New Rotor
New Plugs
New Radiator Cap

Some of the maintainence I have done includes:
Double Coolant Flush Of BMW Coolant.
(I flushed it, put new coolant, ran it a week, and reflushed it again and filled with BMW factory Coolant). The diff oil was changed to Redline along with the Transmission.
Brake system was fully flushed with ATE fluid.
New Bosch Fuel Filter
New Air Filter.
The valves were just adjusted this month.
The car runs like new and should be a reference model for all other 535is cars. I am either going to sell this car or my 535i. Which ever sells first goes! Here are some details:
1987 BMW 535is
5 Speed
Limited Slip Rear
Turner Chip (This Month Installed)
BMW M5 16X7.5 BBS Wheels w/ Pirellis.
Factory TRX Wheels With 220/55/390 Tires! (Currently On Car)
AC (Ice Cold)
Kenwood Indash CD Player
Power Everything.
172,000 miles. Head done around 165,000.
Clean Title
Interior is Very Clean with drivers seat bolster wear (*what else is new*?)

Will not sell to just anyone!
I will take the first $7500. *(The wheels alone sell for $1100 on eBay!)


Be sure to check out my 535i for sale as well.
