Awesome car! (My e28 wishes it were your e28)
Just bought this one a month ago. I think I used up my luck getting hold of this. It showed up one day on Autotrader.com at a dealership for new cars. Crazy. So far I have changed the tranny and diff fluids. It needed front rotors when I bought it and the a/c and trip computer didn’t work. The only thing left now is the trip computer. I’m going to keep it stock, not because it’s so rare, but because it rocks hard just the way it is. It had 90000 miles when I bought it and has just over 91000 now. It does have a couple of rust issues, bottom front corner of pass front door is bubbling a bit. and there is some where the rear license plate lights are.

Rusted license plate light mounts are rearing their ugly head, but I wont get them fixed till I get ready to store it for the winter. This is the one car I wish they made a billion of just because I think everyone should own one once in their lives. What an amazing driver. I ended up mixing castrol 5w-50 synth and valvoline 20w-50 racing synth to try and get enough zddp, and its never ran better. this car continues to amaze me. Why arent other companies building cars this good? This thing came out in 1988! trickle down doesnt work I guess :)
