ssbmw 185 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 nice car . wouldn't mind one of these was that the one owned by gerry hodges(bmw nz club president) a few years back?? Hi Brent, Over the years Gerry's old car and this one have been continually mixed up as they are virtually identical in appearance. His car was sold for the 1st time in 99' and as a consequence people often thought of his car as a 4.4. His car was actually a 95' build. However that car was an individual with red and black seats and red head-lining. Mine is all black inside. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

39KiwiTouring 2 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 On another look imagine the value of that in 15-20 years. Considering it's rareity and k's and conition, hate to think what it's worth now let alone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers mate. I have always had a thing for the big BM coupe's and being a 80's boy, was originally infatuated with the 6's. Living in Germany in the 90's and staying with people who had a E34 M4 and E30 M3, the passion for BMW's started to grow. For many, the lighter coupes like the M3's are the epitomy. I am a little different - I have always liked the big coupes that are not as quick but are rarer, and in my world, look pretty cool. Saying that, this 8 goes OK- marginally slower than a E34 540is due to the weight, but still fun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
