1993 Bmw 525i M-Technic

Basic Information and History

BMW 525i M-Technic in excellent original condition. The car was imported from Germany to Sweden in 2000 by a private owner from Värmland and was sold to a new owner in Oskarshamn later that same year. Since 2006, the car has been parked in a garage until the current owner purchased it in 2020, becoming the third owner.

The 525i M-Technic is a unique model due to BMW's M-Technic package, which includes sporty details both inside and out. This package provides a more aggressive body with unique M bumpers, side skirts, and a rear spoiler, giving the car a distinctive and dynamic appearance. It also features lowered sport suspension for improved handling, sports seats, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel that enhances the sporty driving experience.

The 525i is equipped with BMW's 2.5-liter inline-six engine (M50B25), delivering around 192 hp. It offers a fantastic engine sound and a balanced mix of power and fuel economy, especially when paired with BMW's precise manual gearbox.
