Hey e28 community, sadly parting with my m30B35 swapped '83 533i, see link below. I'm in the Seattle area. Super fun car with some very limited mods. The wife and I bought a fixer upper house with no garage and it's just not making sense for me to keep it. Hit me up with any questions!

I've got an E12 with the same powertrain and it's sweet. Plenty of power, torque everywhere. Looks like a nice car, and those Style 3s look great.

Thanks all! @the
That sounds awesome, I love the looks of the e12 and might even prefer their more classic interior styling. The M30B35 is such a great BMW engine almost as rev happy as the M20 and with way more torque it's as easy to lug around as the more modern VANOS engines but with way more personality. This is actually the only M30 car I've ever driven, test drove it never having driven an e28 before and was instantly in love. Really wish I had the space in my life to keep it, truly a time machine to when BMW could credibly claim to build the Ultimate Driving Machine.Theotherotter wrote: May 22, 2025 2:25 PM I've got an E12 with the same powertrain and it's sweet.
