The body, and the interior are IMMACULATE, the engine has high miles, its a 93, so I figure, plenty of life left in it... I just tossed 800 bucks into new front struts, as they were gone. But otherwise, it looks like a beautiful car, and, I hope to keep it for around the same length of time as my 6 series, (two years older than me, only owner)

Just something to think about though - If its not a stick, the m5 engine might not mount up, or itll tear the auto up if it does. You'll also have to change out the diff, because it'll tear that apart as well.
