that is, without a doubt, the worst condition E28 I have ever seen for sale.

It's not even the best example for sale in Denver.

That's why I hate Craigslist. This is the biggest pile of crap I've ever seen.

Haha, great story. The 535is was 'special' alright (cynism-alert): Air dam, spoiler, sport seats, BMW-valved Bilsteins. Those were the only difference with a 'normal' 535i. LSD was still an option (which this one clearly misses).

All origional all #'s matching right down to the shocks.

With that mileage I would hope the shocks were replaced at one point?

0905 Special Inspection Demo Car, this is the one that is super special, near as I can figure it was an end of run car used by engineers for driving impressions.

Once again: classic! Why, I repeat WHY, would engineers want to have driving impressions of a car that's end-of-life? #905 means 'Special Control - Demo Car', as far as I know this just means it had an extra check at the factory because it was some sort of (dealer?) Demonstration vehicle. And WHY would this fact increase the value of a car anyway?

Rims are 2 piece wheels that were delivered on the M535i which was only sold in europe and Japan.

The M535i did exist in Europe (not sure about Japan). But the wheels don't even come close. Pathetic.

condition: good

Did he actually look at the pictures he posted in his advertisement?

I don't see any price (except for the additional engine) but I like the ratty look. You wouldn't need to worry about any shopping cart accidents in parking lots. If it would decently priced I wouldn't have any issues buying that one.

How much is he asking? I don't see a price on the ad, except for the "additional" $2,500 for the other engine.

Numbers matching, bro! Everything's original! That's what you want on a 25 year old car nearing 200k miles! Do you have any idea how hard it is to find an e28 that even has its original oil filter?

this was for sale last fall for $1700 OBO- moving out of state, etc. the pictures looked like the same car, just not in front of the trailer park it was living in at the time.

there were no such "enthusiast" details in that listing.

Numbers matching doesn't matter to people who buy German cars lmfao.

I have no idea. The engine part is the tip of the iceberg of irritating me. He probably wants like $5000 for everything.

Good point. I wanted something RWD to practice getting sideways in already. It's already $2500 for the engine so I imagine the car is at least worth double the engine.
