I know man, I was shocked to see it on CL. When I met the owner and saw the car in person, along with its long maintenance/ownership history I was sold 
Doing the upper control arms this weekend, it does have the 50-60mph shimmyshake right now.

Nice! An old mtn bikign friend DD's an E39 6 spd, but I've always preferred the E34. Lucky for him, he only drives a few miles to work each day, so the marginal fuel mileage isn't a concern.
The $2300 car looks great! Nice score! 
Little update to this car, I've put almost 15k trouble free miles on my 2300 dollar 540i since August and she is still running strong! Current mileage is just shy of 270k
