Doesn't matter about the pristine exterior, that is the ONLY reason you would consider the car with this many miles... because believe me, you WON'T be able to sell this car EVER... your best next step would be to give it to the Salvation Army, or literally drive it into the ground.
That being said, plan on a couple of thousand for interior, and a MAJOR bit of engine work in the next 100 - 200K miles, and for about $8K all told, you should have a GREAT ride for the next 4-10 years.
Bottom line: this could be a good car, but he is asking WAY too much for it.

'88 735i 5sp 176K and running like a top
Help!
I am considering buying a "88 735i. It is silver w/ black interior. Exterior is literally perfect but the interior is worn but is readily fixable. This car has very high mileage ie. 295K. Local BMW shop has serviced this car since new and removed the head last summer and reworked it. They say it is in pristine condition. Private owner is selling...he wants 6K. Any ideas , opinions etc.
I currently own a '87 635 L6. I'm a believer but I want some advice from 735 owners. TIA
