How is the South African-spec E28 M535i cosmetically different from the European-spec version?
South African-spec E28 M535i models are not fitted with any of the M-Technic body panels and can only be identified by their “M” badges on the grille and trunk lid.. Early examples were also fitted with special M-Technic alloy wheels featuring early-style black center caps, but these were later replaced by regular TRX alloys. Sport front seats in cloth or leather were optional on the South African model.
