Not kids, but M5's! Now we will each have a 93 M5. :)


I am buying the car you see in these pictures for my wife since it's her birthday next month:

I was dropping off my car for an inspection 2 and overheard someone telling the owner of tha garage to get his car ready for sale. I went out to have a look at it and figured I had to get it. There are a few cosmetic issues that require attention but I'll be able to get those fixed.

It comes with 2 sets of M technic wheels.

Probably on Friday or early next week. My mechanic told me what it required to get certified, so I told the owner I'll do it myself. So I need to replace some front end parts before it is certified.

If it was black like mine is, I'd probably pass on it but being Avus Blue, I had to have it! Plus, it only has 134K km's (83 K mi) on it. It also has the Dinan cam gears. The current owner has owned it since new and drove around 6000 mi /yr. He is a cardiologist so was able to perform all required service.

Sweet car, a little localized paint job on the side there and some detailing and she'll make your wife pass out.

It's true, it's a strange place for rust to start but it can be repaired. The car is in very good condition otherwise.

Sure I'll tell you but first I want to hear what people think it sold for. I'll tell you the price in a few days.

It has Dinan cam gears and I just found out one of my chips is in there already! It also has the SLS still working.

Keep in mind that it needs work that would cost $1100 + tax, plus a bit of paint work. I decided to offer to take the car as-is but with a passing emissons test, and get the work done myself.

I'd say mid $20K's U.S.? :) I'll also be contacting you for one of your chips for my '95 540i/6..:D

How many miles Mark? I saw your post on the Yahoo board as well...I love that color--my favorite for the M5. Without knowing miles and assuming around 100K miles, I would guess $18K for price...
