1988 BMW M5 vin#
WBSDC9304J2875220 with 151K miles, in excellent condition with over 12K
invested within the last 3K miles. It’s
black with natural tan leather. The doors, trunk, hood and dashboard all have
the vin# present. The windshield and
window glass are all BMW and not aftermarket. This is quite remarkable considering the age
of the vehicle. The tires are new and the rims look new with no road rash of
any kind. I replaced the battery this
spring and the car has a current State of Maine inspection sticker. Currently, the car doesn’t need anything
except a driver who’ll enjoy it!
It doesn’t have any rust and
the paint is in good condition. I would
rate the exterior an 8/10. No dents or
door dings are present, but it does have some scratches and other minor
imperfections. However, it does present
itself extremely well.
The interior is also in good
condition with the original radio intact. The power seats/windows all work accordingly. The only issue with the interior is the
driver’s seat has a 1” split from a crease that dried out over the years. Other than that, the seats are in great
condition. Please see pics. I
would rate the interior an 8.5/10. The
dashboard does have cracks, which is typical of most European makes of this
era. Please see pics. The a/c was converted to R134 in 2010 and
blows ice cold air.
The stock self - leveling
suspension was replaced with a Bilstein sport kit and has been lowered. It handles like it’s on rails! It has a stainless steel exhaust with a new
catalytic converter. The exhaust note is
incredible!
The sunroof operates when it
feels like it. I think the switch is bad
and needs to be replaced, so I’m told. The electric antenna was replaced in 2010 and
is fully functional.
I purchased the car in 2012
from a German auto enthusiast. He
purchased it in 2010 with 149K on the clock with the intention of investing
whatever it took to get the car up to his standards. He lost his storage and was forced to sell the
car. Please see the condensed list
below of the work performed between 149K and 151K. If you’re a serious buyer, I can email you a
detailed list of everything done to the car since 2010 or within the last 3K. However, I do have a binder full of records
dating back earlier than that. I do have
the original owners manual for the car and radio, as well as, the original ’88 service
book. These are all in excellent
condition. The car is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. A/C R134 conversion including

BMW i8 pitted against M4 in sibling rivalry track battle
Wed, Jan 7 2015We recently watched Auto Bild challenge the BMW i8 against the M4 in a German drag race of decide the quicker of the inter-brand rivals. The hybrid took a commanding victory in that fight. However, Autocar now has a new battle for the two coupes. The siblings are together again on the Castle Combe Circuit to find out which of them offers the more enjoyable experience at the track. Unfortunately, we don't ever get a perfect point of comparison in the video because host Steve Sutcliffe never does a full lap in anger with either of them to set a time. Instead, he focuses more on how the BMWs feel behind the wheel. Sutcliffe also admits midway through the clip that the i8's electric motor is out of juice to power the front axle's electric motor. That only leaves the hybrid with its 228-horsepower and 236-pound-feet-of-torque turbocharged three-cylinder to spin the rear wheels. Still, Sutcliffe spends ample time explaining the benefits and downfalls of driving these coupes. See where his opinion falls between the M4 as the traditional German sports coupe and the i8 as the new-school hybrid in the video, above.
BMW makes the M4 extra special with a huge wing
Thu, Aug 25 2016BMW has all of the bases covered in its lineup, especially when it comes to its 4 Series models. Don't like going to the track? There's the BMW 430i and 440i, which are available as a coupe and gran coupe. Drivers looking for a track-friendly car that can also be used on the road will be steered toward the M4. BMW even built the hardcore M4 GTS for drivers that spend all of their time on a track. Now, it looks like BMW is trying to bridge the gap between the M4 and the M4 GTS with a special-edition model. Our photographers caught BMW testing an M4 with some extreme aerodynamic components around the Nurburgring. With its aggressive front end, massive wing, and sporty rear diffuser, the prototype M4 appears to be similar to the special-edition M4 Competition Sport that BMW released in Spain. The Spain-only special edition was marketed as a softer version of the M4 GTS with less power and usable rear seats. With a similar look and visible rear seats, this prototype indicates a similar track-focused special edition model. Since the M4 is only a few years old, it's unlikely that BMW is testing a new model, but the automaker could be testing aerodynamic components for a refreshed model down the road. A cheaper, more usable M4 GTS, though, would be the perfect car to round out BMW's current lineup. Related Video:
