General description :
Description
This is one of the defining vehicles that made us all fall in love with German sedans. In fact, the consignor loved this 1986 BMW 528e so much that he owned it for 30 years! So check out all the details of the kind of fun European classic that also has the kind of history we all want.
There was something magical about the lines of this generation 5-Series. It had an understated yet sophisticated look that was absolutely attractive. This example has spent most of its life under garage care. So while it has been used, it also has never been abused. The factory-correct Arctic Blue was given a respray within the last decade, and it has held up well to show off the crisp preserved lines of this Bimmer. The BBS-style factory alloys were even upgraded to gold to match the pinstripe for that added look of premium flair.
The 5-Sereis offers good room for passenger front and rear. But because this is a true BMW, they focus all the important pieces around you. This highly original interior boasts some of the era's most comfortable bucket seats, and they are power adjustable to strike the perfect balance for grand touring comfort. The factory wheel engineered to give you a clear view at the full gauge package. Plus, the gear stick is exactly where you always want to rest your right hand. And as a premium vehicle, BMW's engineers expertly worked to make sure that it was luxurious without being distracting. You are always just a short reach away from features like the power windows, power locks, a sunroof, cruise control, and cold factory air conditioning. Plus, the stereo has been upgraded to an AM/FM/CD stereo unit with Bluetooth and an input for your iPod.
This is the era of BMW's super-smooth inline-six motors, and this 2.7-liter fuel-injected powerhouse is a gem. The consignor states that this is the original motor. He's had it for nearly the full time, and it has long service document record. So it's not only easy to believe him, but it's also great to see this car so lovingly cared for decades. That why this one remains both strong and smooth. While the 535i model gets more of the classic car glory today, the 528e is an up and comer in the classic scene because it still combines the sporty five-speed action with the well-tuned fully independent suspension. Add in the four-wheel power disc brakes, power steering, newer modern tires, and brand new rear struts (a $1,100 investment alone,) and this one still knows how to deliver The Ultimate Driving Machine.
The sale comes with complete with the owner's manual and a comprehensive records file that includes maintenance done under the first owner, too. This is an outstanding classic with an outstanding story. So when it's also offered for an outstanding price, you have to act quickly. Call now!

About BMW

Bayerische Motoren Werke, commonly known as BMW, has a rich history dating back to its founding in 1916. Initially established as an aircraft-engine manufacturer during World War I, BMW faced restrictions on aircraft production after the war. In response, the company shifted its focus to motorcycle production in 1923, marking the beginning of its involvement in the automotive industry. Subsequently, BMW entered the world of automobiles in 1928 by producing the DIXI, essentially a licensed version of the Austin 7 from the Austin Motor Company.
In the 1930s, BMW began to establish itself as a manufacturer of elegant and high-performance vehicles. One notable model from this era is the BMW 327, introduced in 1937. The 327 was available as both a coupe and a cabriolet, showcasing the brand's commitment to luxury and style. Additionally, BMW achieved success in sports car racing during this period, particularly with the BMW 328. The 328, which debuted in 1936, became renowned for its performance and aerodynamics. BMW campaigned the 328 in various racing events, including the prestigious Mille Miglia, where the company introduced several aerodynamic specials.
The post-war era proved challenging for BMW, and the company faced financial difficulties that nearly led to bankruptcy. However, BMW managed to recover and rebuild, eventually becoming one of the leading premium automotive brands globally.
As the 1960s unfolded, BMW further solidified its reputation for producing sports-oriented and luxurious vehicles. In 1968, the BMW 2002 was introduced, marking the birth of the "New Class" of compact, sporty sedans. The 2002 gained popularity for its agile handling and performance, laying the foundation for BMW's sporty image.
Moving into the 1970s, BMW expanded its lineup with the introduction of the E9 platform, which included the iconic BMW 3.0 CS coupe. The E9 series showcased BMW's commitment to blending performance and luxury. In 1972, the M1, BMW's first mid-engined sports car, made its debut. The M1 was initially developed as a racing car but later became a road-going model. The M1 laid the groundwork for BMW's high-performance M series.
In the late 1970s, the BMW E24 6 Series was introduced, offering a combination of luxury and performance. The 6 Series included models like the 630CS, 633CSi, and 635CSi, becoming a symbol of sophistication and driving pleasure.
Through these milestones and a commitment to innovation and performance, BMW has evolved into a powerhouse in the automotive industry, maintaining its status as one of the leading premium brands worldwide.
