E34 Dood! look at this turbo.
-
I would be very, very hesitant to buy any turbo car for only $2k, especially one without a real tune.
I would go into this purchase expecting to drop another $800-1200 into a proper dyno tune, and expect to replace some parts that the PO half-assed or ghetto rigged to work.
And then you should be prepared to replace the parts people normally neglect; bushings in the front/rear, cooling system items, misc electrical gremlins inside....

Well my initial investment is budgeted at 3000 right now, so I had those same thoughts. Hopefully snag it for 1500, put about 1000 into to, have nice setup. But its honestly kind of worked over already, it was originally an automatic and it has 160k miles. so idk. if I could have it for a about 1500 I would be happier but the guy was only talking about coming down about 150 or so.

I honestly really want to get an E34 wagon and do a 5 speed swap, plus maybe a motor swap/boost kind of like this (only not half assed) I was thinking about an M3 like that but I dont want to pay the insurance.

i wouldnt go within 10ft of that car or the seller, based on his attitude in his ad.
someone said:

They were polish and ignorant and chicago is crazy, son. PS, the turbo didnt really work other than sounding different at super high rpms. I drove a chipped 525 after that and I would say it was faster. smoother if nothing else.

jesus christ.
also yeah. they seemed angry when we told them we were also going to look at another car and might come back.
damn russian mafia.
