Anything newer puts you into modern manufacturing, which equals cheaply made. The last BMW I would consider is an E34, anything else is made of broken and will be an expensive project. An E28 535is would be awesome. I had an E34 540i 6-speed which was basically an M5 minus the engine, that was also a great and rare car.

For an Audi I agree with the above, a UrS4 or S6 would be perfect. Legendary bulletproof 5 cylinder and Quattro AWD, and old enough they aren’t full of electronic gizmos to break. You could also consider a V8 sedan with a manual if you could find one, or maybe the RS2 treatment on a 90?
