  • This video is about my 1988 BMW 535is 5spd in zinnoberot (red) with euro bumpers, M30b35 engine conversion, and other modifications. You can read more about the story of building this car on my website www.e12m535i.com

    Just an awesome car, Adam. Great video. The BBS’s were my dream wheel as a kid in the 80’s. My first car after college was a wannabe version of this car - ‘92 Jetta GLI 16v in Tornado Red with stock BBS wheels (in silver) and stock Recaros (alas, in cloth). I’m certain the drivers of your car scoffed at me, being a little pretender!

      Right on! I love this comment because it is spoken by a true child of the 80's! Nobody else would reference a GLI and BBS wheels!

    Easily the best non-M5 E28 on the planet, & I've seen many. An absolute winner, cheers to you sir !!!

    Fabulous car !
    Since buying my E28 five years ago, I am absolutely in love with it.
    It is a rust free, low mileage Spanish 525i, not nearly as fast as yours, but it sounds the same, as it is also an M30, but the B25 version.
    Enjoy your E28. 👍

      Thanks for your comment. The E28 will always be the understated yet testament to superb BMW build quality and longevity. Kind of like the 124 chassis Mercedes.

    Beautiful car with a black interior! Cars must have a black interior... Great info too...

    • @adamwilson2203
      @adamwilson2203  Před rokem +1

      Yes, I'm with you. The red over black combo is perfect because I don't like the tan interiors very much.

    I got my 1988 535i for 500 bucks with a clean title. That sounds nice until literally everything broke when I drove it. So now it's troubleshooting each and every point of the car that needs its long overdue maintenance. Beautiful car, though. I still look at it every single time I walk by it.

    • @adamwilson2203
      @adamwilson2203  Před rokem

      I agree, I can't stop staring when I park it anywhere. Or even in my own garage.

  • @EnriqueLopez-hb5jn
    @EnriqueLopez-hb5jn Před 3 lety +1

    Awesome car, and the BBS wheels add a touch of sportiness to the E-28, 535.

    • @adamwilson2203
      @adamwilson2203  Před rokem

      I completely agree and as you can see from my E12 video, I am a fan of 80's BBS wheels.

  • @frythis809

    Just found this video. Great looking car! I have an 87 zinno/black 535is which I inherited from my mom 2 years ago. Bone stock except for style 5 BBS wheels in silver. Only 112k miles. About two weeks ago on Bring a Trailer a white on red example sold for over $53k!. Love the exhaust sound on your car. I'd like to upgrade to the euro lights if the parts can be found.

      Thanks for the comment and for watching my video. Your E28 sounds pristine.

      The BBS wheels and front airdam are perfection in my opinion

    These bumpers painted in body color look great! I wonder what the front would look like without the license plate holder. Not an option?

    • @adamwilson2203
      @adamwilson2203  Před rokem

      I've wondered that myself. There must be some kind of bumper filler trim piece out there?

    so cool.i have the same car.(87 zinno without yer upgrades) live in minnetonka. I would like the how much faster the m30b35 is over stock.

    • @adamwilson2203
      @adamwilson2203  Před 3 lety

      We should get our cars together and take pics. There is a zinno over black that underwent a full paint job and exterior restoration a few years ago at Sears body shop in Plymouth, was it your car?

    Looks like M6 steering wheel except for the fact that it's too thick compared to that one of the E24. Obviously IMHO and with all due respect 👌

    I just got my new to me 86 535i auto a few months ago. I love it but it needs work. If i can only find someone who knows how to fix it. The one's i've run across so far are playing around. They don't really know how these cars work. I'm about to take it to the stealer. And i don't want to do that but i'll be forced to if i can't find someone that knows how to fix the issue with idle and not redlining. It feels very sluggish. But i can't wait to experience this same feeling.

      where are you located?

    • @adamwilson2203
      @adamwilson2203  Před 3 lety

      If you find the right BMW dealer, they usually have a few techs that love working on the old stuff. But it's tough to find a dealer set up this way.

      Make sure you make an account over at mye28.com. They'll have all the info you need to baseline your car. Even if you plan to have someone else do all the work, it's good to know more about the car and the typical issues almost everyone runs into at some point.

  • @dqwaszx
    @dqwaszx Před 3 lety +1

    The blue buttons control lumbar support, but how are the seats adjusted? I couldn't see the original seat controls on the center console.

    • @adamwilson2203
      @adamwilson2203  Před rokem

      There is a button that raises and lowers the seat backs. The blue buttons are for the air bladders. There is also a button for seat heaters which is nice.
