For those that follow such things I dragged home a 528i project (read near wreck) a few days back. The 528i was the top line E12 other than the outlier MLE and the later M535i.
My question is this. E9s, E30s and even E28s (M5 and M535i) are all moving away in values - seemingly on a consistent trend.
What is our collective view on the E12? It has may design elements and parts to the E9 - I'd take one over an E3 any day - but values remain low.
That said, only one on open market here in Aus Do we think a bit of a sleeper? Has some racing pedigree, looks cool and you can get loads of parts and also do some cool modifications and/or B7 replica.
I'm thinking this may be one car where the extra 2 doors don't really hurt it. Looks super cool, and you can throw kids in the back. Same way e30 4 doors have.
