Because the "knobs" know the market better than the owners and sellers.........😁

Just testing to make sure you chaps are awake...........😁

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1972-bmw-baur-cabriolet/?utm_source=dm&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=2023-10-26 Hmm fetching big bux offshore , low kms on this one though

Saw this parked in Sumner Christchurch Saturday afternoon. A lovely looking little car. Shame the seller is getting a bit of a pasting from "bona fide" inquirers on the listing...

We have a pair, but dark grey / chrome. You can paint the slats. Apparently. As new, looking for a good home. 029 777 4006

Good to see the E86 platform getting some forum love 😬 Quietly please lads, don't want too many aspiring BMW owners waking up......

A 6 speed manual transmission E86 3.0si is a pleasure to own and drive. Especially in Motorsport spec (Sports seats, wheels and suspension). And worth every penny over your barry basic E86 auto.....😁

Top rider, and nice with it too.

Sadly nowhere near in our humble opinion. The market is certainly very flat for this kind of stuff in NZ now, despite the hyperbole , its a global thing......... However good cars are stilling quickly at realistic money. This car isn't in this category, it might make 80ish, (but not from us 😕 )the last M6 we are aware of sold for mid 60's. Nice car too, but silver.

Plus one for Phil Gibbs at GT Logistics👌

Staggered or 8 inch square set?

Oil of Eucalyptus

Well its still for sale, and has been listed for ohhh I dunno eight months or more. QED perhaps?

The market is not at $24.5k. When list as we recall woz asking 39k. Needs paint, 7 owners 200 plus kms up. Interesting car for sure, just not at the asking today. IMO. 😁

Yes, top example. A very handy verb, or noun depending on how its used. Not heard or read often down here, more prevalent in the US of A.

The issue with over exposure to the (TradeMe) marketplace is that the desirability for want of a better word is killed by listing with a price expectation that is beyond the previous recorded sale price. Both the BMW and Porsche sections, and other brands too have many examples, for instance a 1M advertised by FarmerBill listed from memory in 2017, and still listed, this M5 too has suffered, all the E36 M Coupes remain unsold, plus quite a few E36 and E46 M3's as well. Surely a better marketing strategy is to run a car for a month, low inquiry rate or no interest, pull the listing and revisit both the advert and price, all of us on this forum know where the market is ........... Just my two cents worth.........😁

A wet dream 😁

Ahh yes I remember the wedge..........😕 Zender kit from memory. Complete with low hanging exhaust to rear.

Off to SpecSavers with you Eagle...........

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

We reckon its still well off the pace at the offer to achieve a sale, would be very surprised if it finds a new home. For what the differences of the S7MA Comp package are from a LCI or facelift (post 2010) : 10mm lower ride height, style 359 wheels and EDC, which of course is an option on all LCI cars plus M mode is enabled too. The early cars have different lettering on the switchgear etc. There was a v. nice 2010 E92 manual sold the other day, NZ new (not that makes a difference really) half the kms fetched $32.5k from memory, sure not a comp spec, but looking at the number of these available (38) more sellers than buyers................there is a signal hidden somewhere here perhaps? 🤨

An enviable sense of commitment here Pranil. 😁

Different seller I think. Maybe sold a few months back. This vendor has a marketing plan.........

Ohh wait, also fits E87...😎
