First off, let me apologize for the quality (or lack of) of these pictures. I haven't had a chance to take any with my bro's new camera before these.

Here are some pix of my new 535i. Build date 12/84, 190,051 on her when driven away. BMW-Schwarz paint is nearly perfect, with only some minor chips and small scratches.

Interior was cardinal red, with power seats. PO swapped the interior for an all-black setup, with manual seats (sweet!). Brand new dash from BMW, installed about a year ago (If you haven't done this, you should look into it. Much nicer than cracks and fading.) %)

She's stock, with only my BavAuto sport chip, coarse-spline M-tech wheel, and the obligatory ///M leather shift knob (M-bling what?) added. I didn't put the knob there, but it is growing on me. :D

Tight steering box, 3.25lsd (factory option), motor is quiet, suspension is up to snuff, and lovely metric trx wheels and tires with oh-so-loud performance sound (lol, off-road swamper tires, anyone?) all make for an incredible driving experience. Style 32's will be going on as soon as I get them repainted bright silver (or black)

After today, everything now works on the car, including the A/C ($437.95 later :( )
This included changing the fan, fan clutch, charging the system with R134 (new compressor and dryer were installed by PO) and adding dye and A/C performance improving additive.

Lots of records were included with the car. STAMPS!
