Kees 594 Report post Posted June 11, 2022 Anyone reckon this is a genuine ACS car? https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/bmw/540i/listing/3634543769 Mirrors, skirts, bumpers, wing, handbrake & gear selector, pedals, strut brace and exhaust all ACS bits. Plus it has some BBS RKs on it too! It's a Hong Kong import which arrived in NZ in 2005 and got the plate "SN1TZA". Pretty cool car that deserves to be saved. Not a bad price either imo. If it wasn't in Taranaki I would be quite interested. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bandit 194 Report post Posted June 11, 2022 (edited) Ohh of course, another free listing day on TradeMe .........I'm lost for words...........all dealer bolt on bits.

qube 3570 Report post Posted June 11, 2022 Had a set of mint BBS RKs in the same fitment sitting around for over a year that wouldnt sell for 1k. Ended up giving them away for like 700. Now worth moonbeams? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not really up to speed on how much they are worth but there's a set on ebay for over $3K NZD which seems insane. Edited June 11, 2022 by Kees Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eagle 1661 Report post Posted June 11, 2022 Probably got the ACS suspension too - sway bars, springs and struts\shocks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not even motorsport seats. And wheels sets are worth just what someone wants to pay. With rising costs and Arrow Wheels, and Elite wheels ( in Christchurch) now charging $1600 plus to refurb and repair sets, Apex and VMR direct out of the USA are a more cost efficent or economic option today.
