How much would something like this cost but in automatic? Also I would be cool with a german cloth interior.
M5 cars of that generation never came with automatic gearboxes. The M5 is after all, a driver’s car.
What wheels are on it? (manufacturer, model (, cost)).
,,,,, beautiful,,,,
Sweet! Just wish it had M5 sport seats or aftermarket seats.
Excellent example of a tastefully Modded BMW, Thank you. How much was this e34 sell for?
Sweet as a Nut! Seems I’m not the ONLY person that reckons the Seats are a bit of a Disappointment, even a front pair of E30 Recaros would really set it off! As a good bit of time has passed since this was done I’m sitting here thinking imagine what a Late Model E92 BMW M3 V8 would be like? (But I,d EVEN happily Use a E39 5 Series 5ltr M-Power V8!!) Great work Guys
Nice car, how was the interior done?
now thats a perfect job…
