jeffbebe 1559 Report post Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) Mine was a LOT less than $25K and even after spending a few grand, I'm still a good $8K shy of spending $25K and would argue it is in just as good condition. I hope you get what you want for it as it raises the bar on my car's value! But having spent a long time looking and now following 8 series I'd be very surprised if you get more than $15K unless someone buys it thinking it's a csi. Sadly, 850s are just being overlooked in the market at the moment. A mint 840ci would probably fetch $20K+ and a csi $50K+ depending on condition.

M5V8 337 Report post Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) meh... if the condition was perfect... you know... running well... nothing to spend. I'd be interested if it was sub $20k. But it would have to be a wknd only car. that is if I could get it in my garage. Which it can't. So i'm out. But i see value in the wheels and CSI kit as that's how I would do it also. (maybe not those exact rims but pretty close). So for me i'd pay a premium to have those done already. I'm sure there's some punter out there with the cash to spend on a 3rd / 4th wknd cruiser and would be happy to take it off him. Finding that punter may take time.

Driftit 2068 Report post Posted March 18, 2015 Buy James'. Get a replica kit (replica car so who cares). Wheels of your choice. Have $15 left over to maintain/tidy/paint. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M5V8 337 Report post Posted March 19, 2015 (edited) its a very good point. (except i'd have to paint it black cause black is badass) Edited March 19, 2015 by M5V8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 2068 Report post Posted March 19, 2015 its a very good point. (except i'd have to paint it black cause black is badass) Just wrap it. That way when it is time to sell you can return it to standard. One thing that devalues a classic is a repaint that isn't factory color. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
