It’s probably an auto (could you get Manuel on an E34 touring in the US? I don’t remember). A little nicer condition than the E36 I posted a few minutes back.

Old Car Talk joke: What’s the first mention of a car in the Bible?

In Genesis: “and he drove them out in his Fury.”

And yes, I think you could get that wagon in the US w/ a manual.

I just checked over at Bimmerforums, and apparently only two E34 Touring models were sold in the US, 525i and 530i, and neither came with Manuel :(

Gotta love a nice E34 Touring.

I generally don’t like lowering the rear of the E34 (camber issues and the wheel tucked under the fender, plus I like a little rake - see the pictures of my E34 posted around here somewhere[ http://oppositelock.kinja.com/found-a-pic-of… ]), but I’ll take one of these no problem.

ooh great wheel choice, Alpina-ish. I should get an E34.

Stock E39 540i wheels, actually. Not hub-centric, but I don’t recall having any problems with them because of this.

E34s are currently one of the great BMW bargains on the market right now. Old enough to be just a used car and not a classic, simple enough to work on, and generally equipped nicely enough to where you feel like you’re in a luxury car. That being said, my base model Mazda5 6MT is probably better equipped than the E34 - amazing how times change...

Oooh I know. I’ve had my eye on some stuff. Got a new job starting in a few weeks so maybe it’ll be time to finally buy something to play with.

I set in motion a plan for new wheels in the next 4-6 months (it really does take that long to search sometimes), exciting isn’t it! What type of work is the new gig?

Pretty exciting thing, I’m going to post about it soon :)
