535i
Could also be an S30 Z car... inline six you know. But those are hard to find round here.

Hahaha. No worse than the guys on here driving full size trucks 
I made the stupid decision that fun and a usable rear seat outweigh MPG this time. With instrumentation and an ignition kill switch it should do 25mpg.

Post pics of the car when you pick it up. I never thought of BMW's as wise used car purchases because I always heard they were hard to work on, but that could just be something I heard.

Definitely will put up a thread.
That era BMW's had little analogue instant MPG readouts in the cluster

You can nickname it the "OMG-o-Meter".
(As in: "OMG! OMG! OMG! Look at my crappy mileage!!"  )
All kidding aside: the 328i owner I know bought a ScanGauge specifically because his OMG-o-Meter prodded him into thinking more about fuel economy, and he wanted more info than that gauge could give him. |
