What body style are you interested in?

I would look at a ealry model 90's 3 series for that kind of money you will get a better car...that's my take

Welcome to the board! A 540 that sells for 4-5k is most likely going to need some attention that is going to cost another 1-2k. I would get a nice 3 series with that money.

You CAN get a decent E34 for that much.....high mileage is a minor issue but with some good initial maintenance you should be ok...i guess it depends on how much you plan on drving it and where......the resale on E34's is still around the 4-6 grand mark you guys......or maybe everyone was thinking E39's?
