pfft, if you like blue interiors look at bmws with ultramarine interiors, main reason why I bought mine. I love old non grey/beige or black interiors like ford and many used to do up to about 1990.
Mine's the budget 2.5L i6 but still has more power than old falcon 3.9L (1990 e34 525i but has mpi, coil on plug and 24v). Unfortunately the previous owner put in beige seats so I'm restoring it all back to blue.

Maybe even look at an older one, eg this one is a bargain https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/wodo...ner/1278190565

E: (IMO the reason why it's not starting is because it needs an ignition module, very common problem on pre 1990 bmws and so many sold dirt cheap because they don't know that)
Bonus if you buy it and live in vic that's close to where all the parts hoarders and wreckers are for old bmws (peninsula bm and the guy in tassie).

speaking of tassie:
