Description for BMW M5 1988

Low Reserve rare BMW. This BMW M5 was first imported to the US for the 1988 model year, and all 1,200 cars were delivered in Black (Schwarz086), with the large majority outfitted with aNaturleather interior. The 3.5L S38B35 inline-six was rated at 252 horsepower, and is paired with a Getrag G280 5-speed transmission sending power to the rear wheels.


The car has many of the standard mods - SLS delete with Dinan/Bilstein suspension, Dinan chip, Billy Boat exhaust, short shifter, upgraded brakes/rotors and has BBS RC90 wheels. Interior has held up very well from wear and tear. Dash has small cracks near vents (see pics) but clean otherwise.This car has been serviced and maintained by very respected old-german-car specialists since I’ve owned.

Non-restored, all original paint/interior, no body or frame rust. Garage kept.Aftermarket stereo system, including subwoofer/amp. Kicker factory fit speakers in original locations. I have the original factory radio/speakers to include with sale. May 2018 service included replacement of the spark plugs and wires, new fuel lines, belts, and an oil service. A/C was repaired in the fall with new receiver/dryer and blows very cold. Every switch/button/knob on this car functions as original. I have service records going back to the 90s and all history since I’ve owned.


The car was recently listed on Bring a Trailer and did not meet the reserve. You can see more pics and videos there. Bid with confidence, this car is a gem and I've had a blast owning it. I've put a lot into this car to make sure I could enjoy and drive it as if itwere a daily driver. In all I put about 4k miles in the 4 1/2 years I owned it.
