    Rare 1988 BMW 735i 5-speed with lots of upgrades

    Rare 1988 BMW 735i 5-speed with lots of upgrades

    For sale is my 1988 735i with an original 5 speed transmission and many upgrades. 170,000 miles. It's priced to sell quickly to the right person and the only adjustment in price is if you don?t want the wheels (I love these wheels!) Take a look at the list of maintenance and upgrades and you?ll see why this is a good deal. Just passed smog, clean title, registration paid, and is ready to go to a new owner who will actually drive it!

    Upgrades -
    Custom shortened Koni adjustable struts in front so it still rides like a 7 series should and has tons of suspension travel. (not sitting on the bump stops)
    Ground control coilovers front and rear
    Ground control camber plates in front
    Upgraded 3 clutch limited slip differential
    Short shifter (Z3 1.9 I think)
    BMW lighted shift knob
    A/C works perfectly
    Staggered Racing Dynamics wheels with 255/45/17 BFG Tires (less than 500 miles). Also have a matching Racing Dynamics spare with a tire (set of 5)
    All good aftermarket speakers with 6 channel amplifier mounted out of sight in trunk. There is something wrong with the amp and only 1 speaker is working right now - sorry!
    Elipsoid headlights with HID?s in low beam and high beams

    Maintenance -
    A/C and Heat blend door flap actuators replaced (40+ labor hours)
    ALL bushings in front and rear end replaced - I mean ALL of them.
    Recent head gasket
    Oil changes every 3k miles with Motul synthetic
    All other fluids are fresh - trans, diff, brake, power steering
    Engine and trans mounts are new
    All shifter bushings
    The engine isn?t original but it has less miles than the car.
    Clutch is new along with the clutch slave cylinder

    This was my dream car and I?ve always loved the E32 but I?ve been distracted with other projects and am not able to finish this one at this time. I built this car to keep, not to sell so everything was done with top notch parts and work. The car needs paint and the bumper trim is messed up. I have a set of bumpers that are perfect that I can include with the car as well as any spare parts you?d like. I?ve parted 4-5 of these cars over the last year and saved the good and rare parts (not selling any parts but can include anything you need with the sale of the car).
