1984 BMW 528i EuroSpec e28 97K miles
Description
I am offering for sale my 1984 528i eurospec car. This rust-free e28 is running strong and drives/handles as it should. Stops are straight and fast, and there is no shimmy whatsoever at any speed. I have all service records from day 1 on this car when it was imported by the original owner to California and federalized. During my stewardship, considerable attention has been focused on the car's brakes, heating/cooling, and many other items outlined in this description. The car is stored in my heated garage and never driven in rain, snow or salty roads.
In this auction, I have provided a small sampling of the many images from the car’s Flickr album:

The headlights are brand new OEM French market headlamps sourced from The Netherlands.
This e28 has antique car status in the state of Missouri. As such, I do not have to obtain ANY STATE INSPECTIONS OR EMISSIONS TESTING.I had to go through over 6 months of red tape with the Missouri State Highway Patrol inspections gauntlet to achieve this status.
The car has a metal plate certifying this status riveted inside the driver's side door jam by the MO Highway Patrol, all officially approved by the MO Dept. of Revenue.
The sport seats are a transplant from the previous owner’s Hartge H5S. TheHartge H1 front spoiler andHartge shift knob can also be seen in the many images provided.
The car received an outstanding repaint in the original Burgundrot Metallic (199) color in 2014, and the slim Euro bumpers have been fitted with new rubber trim.Hartge Type A staggered 16″ wheels wear newNew MichelinPilot Sport A/Stires (Front = 205/55/16 Rear=225/50/16).
The dash is crack-free, and the headliner has normal age discoloration around the rear glass.
