AI Listing Summary
This 1988 BMW M5 E28 presents well with recent mechanical updates and paintless dent repair, but shows some cosmetic issues like a refinished hood and windshield chip. It's a desirable model with low production numbers and desirable features like a 5-speed manual and limited-slip differential, making it a strong contender for enthusiasts despite needing minor attention.
