Please excuse the WOB if this got to the list 2 days ago and I missed it.
A while ago I decided I needed a inexpensive 3rd car to rescue me from
family mini-van and front wheel drive wagon hell. Been lurking here for a
bit to get a feel for what I'm getting into, and the 535 seems to fit my
criteria nicely. This forum and other BMW info. available on the net is
fabulous.
Anyway, the questions:
1. What are the differences between the i and is? I'm trying to dicide if
it's worth the roughly $2k extra for an is and haven't found this whole
story anywhere.
2. How common or rare is a limited slip diff. in the i and is? How does
one tell - I.D. plate somwhere on body, tag on diff, appearance of diff, or
what?
3. Anyone out there know of a good example for sale, must be manual trans,
no rust, good paint, engine and trans., under ~150k Everything else I can
deal with. I ask because 535's seem to be higher priced here in Seattle
than elsewhere in the country so I'd travel some distance to get the right
one.
Many thanks, Eric Rayl
