I bought an 86 535i two years ago. There is an M logo on the back and on the front grill. I knew it wasn't an M5 so I just assumed the previous owner bought the logo and stuck it on there. Now I'm reading here that there is such a thing as an M535i. How do I know if I've got one?
Thanks--I'm a newbee and not mechanically inclined, so forgive me my ignorance!

The M535i was never produced for the USA, so if its a real one, its here grey market, and should have indications of being imported, federalized, and converted to usa specfications (probably poorly)

Thanks!
So the dude just bought those logos and stuck 'em on there (just as I thought)
