Copart BMW finds...

[ElGrecko]

This CSL finally has an auction date... today! Notice that the paperwork is now a salvage certificate instead of a non-repair.

Looks like the "fix" was likely in, somebody likely stole it. If you weren't watching it closely every day it was going to be gone in 60 seconds.

If the insurance company doesn't like the result they run it again. I think it got up to around $135k or so. Not sure if it sold.

Just from the CoPart pics, the 1990 535 manual from Louisville looks like it wouldn't take much to get it to be a driver again. Perfect high school or college student car. I loved my e34 5-speed. Still pretty undervalued in my opinion. Not sure what is going on with the one rear door alignment, if just not shut properly or more damage than meets the eye. Doesn't look too scrunched from overall pics. Definitely would need to view in person, but if the price is low enough, may be a good deal for someone.
