    74 CSA on BaT - 4335126 sienabraun - closing today

    I didn't spend a ton of time looking at the pictures but it looked pretty solid to me. That color would never be high on my list but it can look fantastic when it's fresh and well applied.

    Here's a former E3 owner searching for his former car...

    I want my 1968 Camaro RS convertible that I had in high school back too. :) Maybe this guy could give some additional hints about the car like color combo, manual? sunroof? modifications? so we could all help him look for it.

    WTB: A New Daily Driver

    I got very lucky with the M5 bumper. Our wagon was Jet Black and the original bumper was a little beat up. I was on CL one day and a guy was parting a black e39 M5. I called him to ask what color black it was and he was like 'black', I told him where to look for the paint code and he came...

    WTB: A New Daily Driver

    Our second e39 touring was the exact color combo as this one, 1999 528it auto with sport package without sport seats. I can never leave well enough alone so I added a M5 front bumper, sport seats, and staggered parallel wheels. Man, it looked good. I gave it to our oldest daughter for her...

    WTB: A New Daily Driver

    Congrats!! Our first one was a 5 speed, amazing car! A sports car with a backpack. I regretted selling it before even signing it over to the new owner.

    Powered E28 Sport Seats in Fort Collins, CO

    Not sure about e28s but on e24s you could either Recaros or Sport Seats (and, of course, comfort seats). My first euro e24 (1984) had Recaros, and my new one (1985) has Sport Seats. They are both great seats.

    WTB: A New Daily Driver

    I don't want to steer anyone away from an e39 or e46 touring, I love them - we've had 3 e39 wagons and one e46 wagon. But, as others have said, they are getting to be older cars now. Something else to consider, we came very close to buying a VW Golf Alltrack in 2018 but my wife decided on her...

    Staggered Wheel and Tires versus Square set up

    For me, it strictly for the looks. I think any rear wheel drive performance car looks better with a staggered set up. Also, our e9s have a narrower track in the rear which drives me a little crazy so a wider lip in the rear helps fill that gap from an esthetics standpoint. That's just me...

    I've been driving the E23 around the last several months.....

    I've always liked your e23. I saw if for sale on CL Seattle years ago but passed because it looked like it was Sahara in the pictures. What was crazy was the car included a new brown dash as part of the sale. My buddy Dave bought it instead and I was pleasantly surprised when I saw the color...

    Season's Greetings!

    Merry Christmas everyone! Here's probably my favorite present. I might have given my oldest daughter a hint that I might want it...

    840ci fixer $12500

    I don't even know if it's 5K, it's one dash light away from being parted.

    1973 Going to sell

    Great looking coupe with great upgrades. Fjord is one of the best colors plus it's a sunroof car, to me you have at least a $100k car from what I can see. Agree with others about BaT being the best venue to get top dollar but that's only if you take through pictures and are very present during...

    72 3.0 CS 2240344 Restoration

    2002s have a similar bulkhead. Out of the four 02s I owned, three of them had speakers in the same spot. I like Scott's idea.

    My 'New to Me' e24 Euro

    Thanks Mike! Yes, the RS centers are kind of a standard silver - left over paint from the last set of RS's I rebuilt.

    My 'New to Me' e24 Euro

    Thanks for the compliment! As far as the RSs go, this is the third set that I have redone. It's a lot of work but rewarding. I'd say $1200 is not crazy at all for all the labor involved. There are 34 bolts holding each wheel together, disassembly is no picnic but putting them back together...
