HypedKidz 24 Report post Posted December 15, 2019 Personally i think this is one of the holy grails of BMW https://www.trademe.co.nz/motors/used-cars/bmw/auction-2436332315.htm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
E30 325i Rag-Top 2963 Report post Posted December 15, 2019 Nice cars, but the "Holy Grail" would be the CSL version rather than the CS. This particular cat, not being a fully original version, would be very cool if it was lowered on some big, coloured weave style rims imho. Not sure about the pricing, I haven't followed E9s particularly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E30 325i Rag-Top 2963 Report post Posted December 16, 2019 That’s probably a little too extreme for my taste, but check out the Random BMW Pics thread, there are some very nice ones in there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gaz 1062 Report post Posted December 18, 2019 If it was still original colour, i'd say about $70k right for the price however think it is probably worth closer to $50k Nonetheless, would still kill to have this in my driveway Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I have seen it in person, it needs a bit of work in regards to tidying up the body. It also has some rust issues. I walked away for that very reason. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m very glad someone else has come to the same conclusion. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m very glad someone else has come to the same conclusion. It was the first time I saw an E9 in the flesh and quite frankly I was disappointed. From all the online pics, I always thought that it would be wide and gorgeous but something didn’t look right with the proportions. I genuinely couldn’t put my finger on it. My E28 was parked right behind it and looking at both side by side I actually thought that I would regret selling the E28 to make space for the E9. Then there was the issue of rust... didn’t bother even test driving. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
