M5? |

i'd tend to say yes... but i don't know if dressing any BMW as a M was a popular thing back then as it is today |

Not M5 (jewellery should be satin black, side mirror color-keyed). It's rather M535i. |

Or M535i? |

Air dam is there but wheel looks like plain E28 steel with plastic cap. This is what it should look like if it was an E28 M535i: ![]() or as option the M5 wheel: ![]() |

It's a posh one with tints and full headrests, though wheels look narrow. I looked at this one the other day when you queried another claimed M535i and wondered if genuine or not. Would a proper M535i (or plain 535i) have black or body colour mirrors?? |

Here's an early I think 'official' publicity photo of one with no colour keying:![]() Headrests or tints were not uncommon options on 'lesser' versions But I don't think it's conclusive. The wheels are imo. I think these are hubcaps on steel wheels like these: ![]() I can't imagine someone changing the special M535 wheels with steels. Unless it's not steels and I see things! ![]() |

Agree wheels are wrong - covers as you say plus they're too skinny. So a low-level 5 with M bodykit, probably with Sept 83 side indicators. |
