The 928 is a fast one - Robert drives it pretty much every day when he can convince his wife to give it up (she loves it). Which talk of wives reminds me I should phone him - he's working on finding a good ML for my wife.
As for the Biturbo, when it arrives I'll go over and take a drive, and let you guys know what it's like.
I was sorely tempted by the white one he sold last month, so the blue will be quite hard to stay clear of. To help myself resist its' lures I'll just keep thinking of the price of a brake job or turbo rebuild or self-levelling suspension refit, or...(mind you the cars Robert gets are premium so that stuff although unavoidable would certainly not be right away)
It will probably be a few months before it turns up here though, and another month after that before he gets all the inevitable little details sorted out to get up to fully test-driveable shape.
Stay tuned!

p.s. - It would be neat if the Biturbo goes to another local BMW club member. We're building up a decent population of Alpinas here in the Lower Mainland!

can he get ahold of a late model E36 Euro M3 in good working order perhaps?
my friend needs a bimmer to replace his 3000GT

Imports to Canada are easy if the car is 15 years or older. A good safety inspection and a bit of basic registration stuff and you're pretty much clear. Newer than 15 years is a whole lot more hassle. Robert tends to import mostly the 15 years or older cars I believe. The 928 is newer than that but I don't think it was imported.
Enjoy!
