BAT S38-Powered 1987 BMW 528e 5-Speed

Friends,
I'd like to make you all aware of a car that we presently have on BAT. This is a special build, where we spent a lot of time on the details. Our client wanted a Euro bumper M5 but didn't want to convert a US spec car and locating a good European M5 is always a challenge. So we built one from a base Japanese 528e.
We started with a low mileage example,acquiring parts from several M5 donors and bought a lot of parts new. The engine originally was a BMW service training engine used by BMW NA to train techs on S38 service back in the day. When we acquired the engine it had never been run, there was no sign of any internal combustion ever having taken place!
