The whole thing was (is) a sordid mess
For those of you who saw the "sold" message earlier......
I must have asked too little! the gentleman backed out of the deal after giving me a deposit, which he said to keep- it wasn't much but enough to get some beer and maybe a, OK never mind, but Hamleta is still on the block!

Just listed on BAT, it might take a couple of days for it to be up.
Good luck with the sale.
Thanks Mike, thought she would get more interest but not willing to let her go for less, maybe I'll just wait for the market to improve?

I think that there is a surplus of fairly-priced excellent cars on the market right now.
Markos, I think you're right, I'm banking on the "refreshed originality" and the cleanliness factors, not to mention that this thing rides like a dream (as do many of the ones out there)
Sir. Not sure how to send a PM but please contact me. Hopefully car still available. I beleive i would be very interest in your car. Regards Frank [email protected]

Oh, also- forgot to say thank all you guys for the uplifting comments and banter I'm glad I'm keeping at least 1 e9
Happy and sad!
It's official, Ham-lee-ta now has a new home. That means I now have to spend a long time re-cleaning and tightening everything up but I think she's going to a good home in the Boston area and I hope you all welcome her when she arrives in a couple of weeks.
Once again, thank you all for the good wishes and uplifting commentary, Unfortunately for you all I'll probably get another and post restoration shots and banter ad nausium unless I find an 850i and drop my 440hp Coyote Ford motor in it with an old school 5-speed. "save the manual"

Excellent, we need more coupes up here!
Tod, I'm going through her again- I have two weeks to get her perfect. There wasn't much movement on the price so I had better make it "perfect"! This is like the first time I have sold a car that I re-did so I'm a little concerned that if anything isn't right it's on me, or rather all over me!
Chris, the cult thing is already in the works! Ruby Ridge here I come. Or as they say in Texas, Keep Calm and "Carry"

Peter, they are not called cults since recently. Now they are Alt-Rights.
Thanks Drew, Looking at an 82 Euro M6 next It's a bit of a boat compared to the e9 but might be fun and it is unusual. I spent quite a bit of time last night removing interior trim to get the headliner out of the sold car- now I have to go back to work on it as this is kind of my premier sale although I don't think I will ever do this as a source of income. If I added up all my hours I could have worked at McDonald's and purchased a new Ferrari with cash.
Got your note re. John Glen- an amazing man.

Oneills- Ok, I'll have to get caught up with the new "English" My first Alt-Rights movement will be to promote inter-species marriage and then push for the appropriate restroom designations.

Congrat's on the sale, nice it's coming to the Nor'East. Hope we'll meet the new owner during the 2017 driving season.
