Just seen this, looking awesome! Good OEM+ mod would be changing to FL ellipsoids in the flavour of your choice to replace the sealed beam candles the PFL's got from factory.

I rolled a facelift ZE1, the cops said I'd turned over a new Leaf.

You're in luck twice! I actually have that exact model hah.

Mon français est de la merde, mais ce post l’était aussi.

Early (pre TU2) M57's are iron block, so are more nose heavy than the M54 engined cars. This will be the TU 3.0L with the updated Garrett turbo. BMW paid particular attention to making the M57 sound less like a tractor than most other diesels, they've got a real growl through the rev range. Same engine as the larger 5 and 7 series cars so an easy +15hp and 90nm with a software change. Being auto it will still have swirl flaps (the manuals didn't for some reason).

That's a mega improvement! Looks like I'm adding that to the August project pile.

Neal you're a guru!

This one is close too… https://www.facebook.com/share/7o8RdgK5Hy6ciWcQ/?mibextid=79PoIi

See if this works - private group though so you might have to join up. Oh and $6,995.

Someone buy this so I don't

Genuinely surprised that hasn't sold, she's a beauty @jjs! Seems to be a buyers market however, the Webbs car is as dull as dishwater, and Sunday Drive are asking far too much for theirs.

Great score! Was purchase price much higher than what it passed in at? I didn't realise it was a ZCP, that makes it even better as there were only 4 new sold in NZ. I'd almost be tempted to get an oil analysis before doing the bearings, could be a case of them actually being fine if they haven't popped by now. Edit: Looking forward to seeing you around! If you see a black 335d give me a wave, there's also a black ZCP down here too.

Barbados Green (it's definitely not that!). Also: https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/850i/listing/4823765166

Cheap set of 4x100 17" Schnitzers if you wanted to roll big https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/car-parts-accessories/wheels-tyres/alloy-wheels/listing/4822942342

@Bennyboy 17x8 ET10 / 17x9 ET19 hence them looking almost square.

Aaaaaand it's now in the USA. @m3nameisjosh snapped it up and shipped it over.

BBS RX / RG-R are god tier wheels for the E36/46. Great choice. Can't really complain at being freshly refurbed either - I've spent stupid monies in the past doing that exercise so can totally understand not wanting to spend the money if someone else already has!

ET10 offset fronts doing a lot of the heavy lifting 😉

Exquisite taste to run the dished 8.5" Apex rears!

Queenstown claims an E36ti

@Jun found that E38 shell yet? https://www.turners.co.nz/Damaged-Vehicles/Damaged-Cars-for-Sale/porsche/taycan/24856850

Well priced I think! https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/listing/4803479280
