5/1984 build date: North American built VIN: WBAEB7402E6728178
-I have the title in hand
-Car is registered in North Carolina, no smog is required on cars this age here, cannot say whether or not she will pass, she passed last in Maryland in 2008 (which after 25 years also no longer requires smog in state)
NO accident reports, no insurance claims (to my knowledge & carfax's), all responsible parties owned, 4 owners since 1984. Started in Denver, CO, car made it's way to Maryland where it was sold from the original owner to 3 individuals, me being the 4th down in North Carolina. I have owned the car since 2008.
original 5 speed from factory, I have also replaced the water pump, thermostat, completely flushed the cooling system (within 2000 miles), blower motor, spark plugs, fuel filter, regular ~3,000mile oil changes with new mahle filters, replaced the sunroof motor, installed an e30 maplight review mirror, replaced the pealing speaker covers with matching 1988 635 premium speaker pods, new to me shifter knob (originally off another mid 1980s e24), all lighted window switches upgraded, replaced brake booster seal for common leak fix, replaced coolant sensor, replaced brake fluid sensor, clean trunk bay, have e24 car cover, always garage kept during periods of intermittent storage, wheels are style-5s, BBK upgrade with ceramic pads fronts are 750i's rears are 540i's. the rest of the suspension is stock. Mint backseats, No rust, in arches, behind trim, on strut towers, have oil reset tool, full tool kit in trunk with green handle heyco screwdrivers. Have yet to install but have rear euro headrests with mounts (two tone right now, but will dye or buy a matching cardinal headrest mounts are cardinal headrests are tan).

The Bad:
-The headliner has some discoloration, on the sunroof, and around it, I believe it has come from pollen, dust 30 years of driving when you retract the sunroof, just adds up on what seems to be a relatively absorbent cloth

-antennae does not rise, haven't had time to get a new one (radio works, just the mast does not go up)
-there is some small paint rising from wheel wells - all are in the pictures
-exhaust tips are a bit rusty, need to replace in the future (muffler back?)
-A/C has never been addressed, or converted, does not blow cold
-small 2 inch dent in driver's quarter panel (could probably be punched out)
-sometimes blower motor kicks out some heat (need to put a resistor in between relay and motor)
-small crack in driver and passenger side door seal (water only would get in it you pushed the hose against it while washing it)
-several rock chips but for a 27 year old car, not bad - might be able to see in pictures
-small scratches in some areas from washing/waxing/being a car that got driven
Car will come with a massive box of replacement parts, switches, chrome mirror, original turn signals, sunroof motors, lots of mid-80s BMW associated gear
sad to see her go, i need more reliability for now so she has to go.
car is located in Durham, NC 27713
