[morpheus5039]

thanks bro morpheous.

thats what i have in mind also a 2.5 auto.
coz they tell me the 525i interior on the
2.5 will be nicer also.

how about the gearbox? izzit 4 speed auto or 5 speed auto ?

thankz again

Local Spec usually comes with GM 4-speed. Some European spec comes with ZF 5-speed. Japan spec comes with Jatco 5-speed.

I cannot guarantee, just that most of the E34s I seen are like this.

hmmm..
true also..
most of the e34 525i i come across..
is 4 speed auto..
will the e34 build quality be better
compare to e36 ? if both of them
are manufactured in the same year ?

E34 should have better build quality compared to E36.

But, when I drive E34, I feel the heaviness of the car. When I drive a E36, I feel the car is very light and accelerate very shiok.

All your E34 needs is a slightly bigger capacity engine and a manual tranny
