Honestly like a brand new car, very smooth. No wierd noises or clunks. Good power, everything on the car works perfectly as it should.  Zero issues.

All the leaks must've cleared up then which is good. The car got driven once a year by the owner of Concours and he'd complain about the oil and other fluid leaks on the floor haha.

Is this the one that used to sit in the front of the building?

When I got the car I did a little refresher just in case. Belts plugs fluids and a few gaskets. I didn't know how old or when anytbing was changed. So I wasn't aware of any leaks anyways. Looked bone dry underneath.

Yes it was. The later ones had body colored mirrors.

This thing is beautiful. What's the ballpark price on something like this? I have no idea what the market is like...

The prices are all over the place. I've been offered around 20 for mine, but I wouldn't sell it.  You can get a clean one for 10 grand. Something that needs work less.

Thank you. Not a fan of the euro bumpers on the e24. The diving boards fit this car better than for example a e30.

Yes. Story was they bought it off a customer who was looking to sell it. Not sure when that happened. I worked there from late 2011 to late 2013.
