Summary
This 1987 BMW 535is, finished in Cinnabar Red over black leather, features a 3.4-liter M30 inline-six paired with a five-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Notable modifications include Euro-style grille and headlights, 16" Alpina wheels, and aftermarket springs and dampers. The odometer shows 195k miles, though the true mileage is unknown, and a potential odometer rollback was noted in 2008.
