Not Inka

Hi all,

We now have some more information about this coupe (thanks Koopman!). It was born a CS automatic polaris/blue delivered in Germany. It was repainted Kastanienrot (chestnut red), not a coupe color but an 80's BMW factory color on E21's and other period series. It even wears a proper "Kastanienrot-Metallic" sticker in the engine compartment. The engine is now injected and the gearbox is a manual (don't know if it is 4- or 5-speed.)

It is being sold for the owner by John, who can be reached at his cell phone 203-731-zero nine forty-two. He is in CT, the car is in Garden City, NY. John doesn't seem to know much about the car or coupes but somehow is selling it for the owner.

This coupe used to be owned by a poster of this board and his longest thread with photos is here:

I think there are several of us members that are contemplating buying this car.
You could take a look and snap a few good pics of some critical areas (shock towers, bottom of spare well, rockers).

We'd all be grateful.

John

P.S. If there's ever an E9 FS near Boston, I'd always be happy to look at it for y'all.

1972 Redish and definitely not Inka.

Hi Guys:
i guess I,m responsible for the original thread and hope you understand that I have no affiliation with the seller. Last year I saw one at a service station near where I live and posted the color as Inka. The first call I received was from a member and he asked for pics etc. I took what I felt was important as far as rust and other costly items I thought would make a difference in either buying or not buying the vehicle. He went ahead and purchased the vehicle had it transported from the Eastcoast to the Westcoast and as it turned out it was not in the condition he expected and the whole thing would not of happened if I had not started a thread about the car.
Why I did it again I don't know. I hope it works out for someone interested.
Thanks
Koopman

FYI, since I was interested in this car at one point, the seller called me yesterday to say it was now priced at $14,000.

Looks like he has been hearing from the forum members as he has updated the ad description!

72 Reddish CSI

Hey for those who have seen this car or talked to the owner I am curious what the issues are. Outside of the color it appears pretty original and in good condition. Do we know if it 4 or 5 speed? Is it the original fuel injected engine or a later year conversion? any rust issues? engine issues? Wood? interior? A/C? Thanks

I don't know the seller, but suffice it to say that this is not the way to maximize the value of an E9 one is attempting to sell.
