Vehicle Detail
For sale: 1988 BMW E28 M5. This is a fantastic example for the enthusiast. It's not a garage queen that you'll feel guilty driving, but it's not a thrashed junker that won't perform to your expectations. It is a very, very nicely kept and maintained example of a true sports sedan. Somewhere around 1200 of these cars were ever imported to the US (all with black paint and beige leather). Nobody knows how many are still roadworthy, but very few are in daily driving condition with less than 100K miles. Engine: 3.5L inline 6-cylinder; 256hp stock; 0-60 6.5 secsTransmission: Getrag 5-sp Manual 79,8xx miles Passed Oregon Emissions testing (DEQ) March 2010 New OEM Exhaust system New catalytic converter Newer oxygen sensor Newer OEM electric antenna assembly Newer upper and lower control arms New Sway bar link, tie rods, center link New power steering pump New Alternator and bushingsNew Battery New fuel filter New brake pads and rotors Most all hoses replaced New Bilstein shocks front and rearFresh hood struts I have all records and receipts for the above. --All original body panels with matching VINs --Original paint/leather --OEM multifunction trip computer, works perfectly --Turner Motorsport (Jim Conforti) chip; OEM chip included --BMW business CD player --AC blows cold --Driver and passenger seat heaters, remote power mirrors --Sunroof with tilt/slide functions works perfectly--Headliner perfect with no sagging, rips, stains --OEM wheels, 16” forged basketweave alloys (including spare) --Less than 10K miles on Kumho Ecsta tires --OEM toolkit complete The car spent much of it’s early life on the east coast, but it has been thoroughly inspected by Pacific Motorsports in Portland. There is no body/undercarriage rust or corrosion. There are no fluid leaks. Known issues: The car has the flaws you'd expect for it's age: minor dash cracks, paint blemishes, minor leather cracking. The cruise control stalk is loose, but the cruise control works perfectly. The left rear window doesn’t move. The shifter knob leather is worn. All electric seat functions are normal, but headrests don’t actuate (motor runs). The driveline guibo is cracking.Runs and drives beautifully; pulls strong, handles just as you would hope and expect. PLEASE see the slideshow below for 90+ detailed photos.This is a NO RESERVE auction. Feel free to ask questions and bid to win! I am happy to coordinate with a shipper in case of a remote sale. In-person inspections are welcome. I will end the auction early if the car sells locally. Thanks for looking.
