Still $14,000 OBO
My offer is 6K, bear in mind that your's car aint an M5, unless you have an M engine in there for what you asking, also there are lots of similar car and M5s advertised for way less then your asking price.
What is special about your car that you are asking such a high price?
High mileage, no air, nothing electric, pictures don’t even show interior or the problem areas that you mentioned.
you must not know a damn thing about m535s. Go piss off noob.

Not to hijack Ted's thread, but more specifically, the car is a M535i. And to quote the BMW M Registry FAQ:
What makes the E28 M535i unique?
The E28 M535i is closely based on the mechanically identical E28 535i and therefore does not feature any unique BMW Motorsport-designed drivetrain components.
What kind of engine powers the E28 M535i?
Like its E12 M535i predecessor, the E28 M535i is not powered by a special M-developed engine but by a standard BMW powerplant. In this case, it is the exact same M30 inline-six found in the E28 535i and later versions of the E23 735i and E24 635CSi,
You can read more about the M535i here:

The M535i will be in Aberdeen MD this weekend if any one want s to come see it in person. I just changed a tie rod end and two upper control arms. Replaced the two front tires with Yokohama's and aligned the front end. No shimmy now!
It still needs two rear tires and one subframe bushing which I might do if a good offer comes in.Cheers. Ted in T.O.

Too bad the timing is off -- have family in town this weekend but otherwise I would make the drive north just to see this car. I'd have to cut through all the E46s and E90s likely but it would be worth it. Good luck with the sale.

Rebecca's boyfriend just dropped by and showed me November's issue of Eurotuner.Of the over 1000 BMW's that were in attendance 26 pictures were entered and the M535i was one of them. I guess Greg Emmerson inserted the M535i into the article because he has never seen one. They are rare here in NA that's for sure.Cars is in storage and still looking for a good home.

The M535i is sold to a local person here in T.O. he will be picking it up in the spring. I would like to say thank you all for the support and comments I received over the past 9 years of ownership. It was a blast to drive and the new owner will enjoy it as well. When I'm down in the states next year look for the Royal Blue Alpina B10 with all the beer in it.
Cheers. Ted in T.O.
