Why not just turn down the pump and daily drive it instead of getting rid of it?

It's got a list of issues, interior being the hardest to getting around. Sunroof has been inop for 3 years, door cards are almost all falling off by now. The idea of a 400hp 535i that I dont have to turn wrenches on every weekend is appealing.

Early door cards are all over pull-a part and this is the perfect opportunity for sunroof delete. I'd love to get a non-sunroof headliner, the cloth one with bows so I could stitch up my sunroof and save a few pounds in the best place to do it.

All that said, a '95 does sound like what you want. With a 606 turbo and a 722.6 trans. I think there's a great donor car in the classifieds for that....

Kids are getting older and I need to spend more time with them now so I spend less time dealing with problems later.

Always do what I did and buy a 94-95 with a good interior and fully swap it long with the front clip, headlights etc... Still if it does come down to parting it... and I can scrape the funds together, I still want the bits for mine.
