Very clean. 140,000 miles with new clutch, cooling system, alternator and tires.

$2750. How’d I do? Paint is great (perfect except for a small clear coat peel on the roof)

If that’s the one that was on Craigslist, I was thinking about getting it. Looks super clean!

It was. I jumped on it. Had tons of interest and I had cash. Drives minty.

Jealousy levels are off the charts! Nice, and not a boring color like most 5 series.

Nice! I have been wanting a manual E34 or another E39 (but manual) for a while now

I’m looking at this . It looks nice in the photos, but I haven’t made the trek out to Capital Blvd. to check it out.

Only $2750???? What a steal. I love E34s, great buy!

Good score. And it’s actually painted a real color. Looks sharp in red.

If it were black, white, blue, silver, or grey it would be business. You are now upper-middle-class professional enthusiast.

ex e34 owner

I saw you owned one when searching e34 on oppo.

While you’re here my dad’s newXC90’s air suspension doesn’t work. Nothing happens with drive modes and the back buttons do nothing. Any ideas?

I was looking through the Volvo Retail communications sight and I haven’t seen any tech journals or service actions for that. Definitly stop by the dealer and have them take a look. They will be able to call HQ for more info with the VIN

Thanks. I was thinking there might be like a shipping block someone forgot to remove or something.

Awesome, very good choice! 525i?

Slant6 > Schaefft 07/03/2015 at 15:53

Yes. Ok fuel economy with noise.

I wanted a 530i one of these a while back to turbo. It would have been glorious if i did

finally an oppo member buys a car that isn’t boring

It’s only a 525i so not really a race car. But not quite boring.

I have to sell it before I can tag this.

I’m not exaggerating when I say I could find like 10 “hey guys I bought a thing ” titled posts in the past few months that are not fun at all

I'm assuming you're going to pick up a good set of snow tires for Boone?
