jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted October 25, 2012 Saw a tidy black E39 today w/ msport bumpers and single exhaust with dual tips... All very nice, except the M5 badge glittering on the boot lid. Hmmmmn. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MD13 494 Report post Posted October 25, 2012 Saw a nice e39 540 all blacked out (kidneys, wheels, windows etc) in Takapuna. Parked behind my e30. No pics as the driver was sitting in it... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NZ BMW 368 Report post Posted October 25, 2012 (edited) I'm in LA for work at the moment. Over the last week I've seen quite a few E30's, all of the 325i's which is interesting. Some in excellent condition, others close to the scrap heap. Also lots of nice E38's E39's and a very nice E32 along with all the newer BMWs. Saw this on the motorway the other day, carbon fiber wrapped and weighed down by the mass of three huge bodies... I especially like how it appears to have more camber on one side than the other.

beemn 50 Report post Posted October 26, 2012 This has appeared recently about a block from my house... Very nice. Was it on TM recently? Thats Zac's, hes had that for about 10 years,was his fathers car originally. He put in a motor from a 92 M5, goes pretty quick, thats his L.R infront of it, and im sure you would have noticed his TVR in the drive way every now and then too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't see too many in NZ so I guess it must be his. Both great cars. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted October 29, 2012 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vtgts300kw 90 Report post Posted October 29, 2012 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. Probably for good reason... Would be a prick to maintain. And it's generally found outside either of the Stephen Marr hair salons in Auckland. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hybrid 1043 Report post Posted October 29, 2012 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! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pardon the pun, but I think the shine will wear off all the matte finishes pretty soon anyway. Nothing looks better than a nice shiny car! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know Stephen, don't think he drives an M3 - last time I saw him he was in an old Audi family wagon! I'll try and find out who it belongs to! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30 325i Rag-Top 2956 Report post Posted October 29, 2012 We've just PDI'd a brand new 650i Grand Coupe in Frozen Silver, looks amazing!Look after our demo for us Make sure it comes back nice and clean!It's called Frozen Grey, from the photos it looked like it had been left in primer and the top coat missed off. Sounds like it looks better in the flesh. It will be interesting to see what these paint effects look like in a few years, cetainly wouldn't want to take it to the local Scouts $5 car wash!
