Very cool.
What's your price range?
Interior shots?
Driving impressions? How does it compare to your e34 M5?

woods · 07-08-2008, 09:14 AM

I'm interested in how fast it is compared to a regular 535 or an M5

I'm interested in knowing how to pronounce "hartge" properly

so I don't sound like a dumbass when I say it wrong.

MikesJo · 07-08-2008, 12:14 PM

Hart-ge (guh).

That's how I've heard it pronounced. Correct me if I'm wrong

I'm guessing it's going to have around 260 hp, so 40 more than a 535 and 50-75 less than an M5 (depending on the year).

So this is not a rep like most Jap imports?

johnny2rivers · 07-08-2008, 04:46 PM

H5sp?

24 valve?

Nice car. I'd like to see pic of engine bay and some specs if possible. But I am not in the market and not trying to waste your time - just curious.

MGuy · 07-08-2008, 07:48 PM

Is it a Hartge Japan build or from the mother country?

1989E34M5 · 07-08-2008, 07:50 PM

This is a real Hartge, even has Hartge Vin plate, strut brace, suspension, valve cover, wheels, steering wheel, dead pedal, dont know if Hartge has reworked the head, also has super sprint muffler

M635 · 07-08-2008, 10:29 PM

Any issues that should be dealt with?

1989E34M5 · 07-08-2008, 11:48 PM

Havent had time to have a real close look at it yet, have to get it registered because it is from Japan, will have to replace the tires, maybe the brakes, hook up day time running lights, and high mount brake light. May have to do a few other minor things before it is up for sale, should be ready around beginning of September, I am going on holidays for the rest of the month.

Mr. Red · 07-09-2008, 01:19 AM

is it standard?

Lee's · 07-09-2008, 10:27 AM

What year is the car? If it is older than 15 years, then no need to make the car compliant to any federal law.

BTW That car looks very much like one converted in Japan. The wheels are definitively not the German Hartge wheels. Look more like the Japanese ones.
