looks nice, just needs the factory 20" wheel option.

yes, we're still able to order E92 for production as well as cabriolet as the 4 series isnt out yet. its not tieing up a production line when you have nothing else to replace it with.

E46 coupe's were made in 2006, as the E92 didnt come out until lateish 2006, and 2007 here in NZ.

just like the E92 is still being made until the 4 series is released.

worth it for the wheels!

we sold a 99 540i NZ New sport, 30,000kms for 20k. much nicer car than this!

A big ask I know, but i want some 17" style 5s, the composite type not 1 piece.

let me know if anyone has any they want to part with!

Cheers.

Perhaps thats why its cheap..... either way you clearly wont be interested so why comment?

did the M3 you drove have EDC??? if so what setting did you have it on??

yeah it wont get much better man, my brother whos a plumber brought a brand new Hiace last year 2.7 VVTi petrol and he averages 12.5l/100km crusing around, whereas in his old 3.0 diesel he would get 8l/100km haha but it was gutless as anything!

yeah, but the E30 doesnt have the aerodynamics of a 1900's castle and a crappy carburetted engine.

Just brought this, (was an absoulte steal, wasnt planning on buying another car!!) NZ New 1989 320i Manual, funnily enough the 1st owner was the bosses wife, needs a bit of suspension work but the body is nice and tidy, got a is lip for it, tech 1 wheel (thanks to richard) planning on lowering with a bit of stance in the way of BBS RS's and a good mint up... a good stereo and some tints and shadowline. thats about it really. just a toy as i have a company car.

hmmm might go check this out tomorrow, seen as they're right next door to our dealership!!

yeah, petrol vans are shite for economy, honestly the gear ratio's are all wrong for highway driving and the engines are low tech and not at all tuned for economy!

nice and tidy man, are those 15" RS Reps??

after good shocks all round and lowering springs (superlows or the likes) for FL E30 sedan.

after a tech II kit front and rear, sides not too much an issue.

also after recaro front seats.

BBS RS reps, 15 or 16"

let me know if you have any of these.

text me on 0274658454 or PM me.

i know the owner, and it sold for over 9k, very close to asking price infact, so goes to show things are worth what people are prepared to pay!

Check out this gem!

^^ Everything on that spec sheet is standard equipment for NZ spec 1M's except for the sun protection glazing.

I think it looks fantastic and you're right on the exhaust.. sounds awesome.

I hope your turbo is feeling in good health, the old E46 ones weren't the most sturdy.

But more on topic, I love the LCI 7, cant wait for our demo to arrive!

I disagree, you wouldn't truly until you own a E65. They are a superb vehicle! I prefer the exterior on the F01 (facelift), but the interior on an E65 seems far more substantial. And I like the pre-facelift front end on the E65 and E65 facelift rear end.

I disagree, F01 interior is far better quality (i've owned an E65) and think the drive is far better on F01 also.

I see every day the issues with E65s, wouldnt buy another one!

Coolest car at HQ this week, E30 M325i absolutely MINT. Pictures don't do it justice, phone camera and photo taken in the basement so not the best quality.

It's got all the cool options - map light mirror, tweeter pods, OBC, etc.

Sure is a minter! drives like new too! i've tried a few times to get him to part with it but he just wont.

Looks awful, you can get a good NZ New car for that with a black interior.

Either way it wont be cheap to own in the long run.

The Guy who just brought that M635csi just spent thousands on it with our dealership getting it up to scratch to drive it down there, was David Smail's old car.. its a minter.

genuine M Power engine and all.

dont see the point at all for the frozen paint job, if people are into it so much, would be better to plastidip the car, if you chip it damage .. just re-do it for cheap. Same effect, more durability. Isnt permanent and can be 100% reversed with 0 damage.

Frozen paint cant be polished and is hard to clean well without causing glossing effect.

Each to their own i guess, although spending $200k+ on a car with no shine is a bit mind bogling!

Saw a frozen grey M3 (is the newest E92?) on Ponsonby Road today. Was driving so couldn't take a pic but can't be too many of those around.

We've just PDI'd a brand new 650i Grand Coupe in Frozen Silver, looks amazing!
