I was looking into buying a 1985 535i and I was just wonder if I should look for anything special and if there are any major problems that occur often.
the only problem would be steering vibrations. take the car for a drive, test the brakes at all speeds and check for vibrations of the front wheels. check for the gay TRX tires (the rears will be 220/55/390) they arnt horrible and not a reason not to buy the car but its good to know what your getting into first.
stick or auto?
