Bayerische Motoren Werke M535i BMW e12 M 535i My M535i next to Adam Wilson's M535i This is a 1980 m535i, during 1980 and 1981 only 960 left hand drive versionbs of these where produced, another 500 or so right hand drive versions where made. They where not sold in the United States, this one was imported by a private buyer in 1985, I bought this car in the fall of 2001. It's been an eventful few years, my car went missing and was then subsequently recovered by the Chicago Police. This is what the m535i looked like between 2001-2009:
This is what it looks like today (February 2012): New carpet has been ordered and my car is getting ready for some TLC. PICTURES FROM THE PAST Most Pictures courtesy of Adam Wilson VIDEO Adam hauling ass in his M535i on I-94 - Shot with my Canon A70

A Great Frickin' Car One of my passions was my 1980 BMW 528i. I am not alone on this one people, just check out www.firstfives.org. Anyways, I was in an accident in 2001 which really put a wedge into my plans of fixing this car up. It is now a piece of scrap metal. It did allow me to get my dream car, an E12 M535i.
