Nice collection!!
Agreed on your points of the 7 series. I was originally looking into them when I got my e39. They just seemed too scary, they always got the newst technology and were usually bought by executive types that either maintained them horribly or simply didn't care about them.

You could also argue that for atleast some period of time, this car was only affordable to a person with great means (having a value of like $80k in 92). Having the means to afford the car would mean you likely could also afford to maintain it at the dealership. The inside of the car shows obvious love. The exterior even shows a good amount of care. The mechanicals however could be better, and of course, its the only real important piece. Its all good though. She has lots of power and drives great. Took a country curve at 70 today! yeehaw!

Been gone too long again. Keep buyin, keep tradin, keep wrenching...
traded the 92 750iL stright for> 95 740iL, less miles, no rear bumper. Traded that for > 2000 323it with an SOL transmission and 300 cash. Sold the 323it leaking coolant and a trans only functional in 3rd for 1400 picked up. Bought a 2000 528iA with five (count'em!) style 5s, 260k miles, and a bad ABS computer. ABS computer off ebay (130), coding at Euro Tech in New Brighton, MN (70), wheel speed sensor, and she is ready to rock and roll this winter. Got a nice set of minty Mille Migila 5 spokes, brand new tires on them. The seller assured me the tires were legit. Ended up needing to be balanced and they are slightly cupped causing some vibrations. not ideal. But the car appears to be good to go through the winter. Only concern i have right now is a gimpy starter. Please enjoy the pics to follow

He already sold it. And to be fair it was a project car. The buyer already did a manual swap in it I believe.

Wagon is long gone. it went to a guy with far better skill and knowledge and means. Knocked out the full trans conversion in like 6 hours. Then had to do a full cooling system overhaul. It will be for sale though is my understanding. It is just in the Twin Cities, karl. so it would be an easy pick up.
