Possibly a member here. Hopefully West Coast Customs did not touch anything more than the interior.

what's going on with the passenger front door panel or is it just reflections?

The door panel will be an additional $1,000.00

$140K car, - four terrible pictures at the gas station.

It must be the automatic transmission that makes the car so valuable.

i am totally baffled by this guys pricing. WTF is he thinking? i think its still way too high if you divided by 2. oh, the confidence - D jet being electrically tuned by himself ... unless his name is Don Lawrence or Carl Nelson ... that's a scary thought.

don't like the interior - doesn't matter who did it.

Obviously a lot of money spent on the front seat covers.

Installed by no other than West Coast Customs famously known for the show Pimp My Ride some time ago. Perfect guys to work on a CS coupe.

The only factory automatic csi in the entire world. It's worth a fortune.
Right.

 

[jmackro]

i have put so many thousands into it and i only used it a couple of times which is why im letting it go.

Oh, OK - yeah, that makes sense.

Should we start taking bets on the Over/Under on Days/Months listed on CL? Now, I know this isn't a gambling site, but gentleman's bets work fine (I'd have to be excluded of course)... Or until price is lowered?

I believe there were only ever 2 auto CSi's built in LHD. Not saying this is one of those two.

I recall Andy (Orangener) found one of them in Austria.

"Post deleted by author" sorry I missed it.

not worth lookin at

Not surprised it got deleted. I'm sure the first guy that saw it gave him $140,000 in cash and bought the car. What other possible scenario can there be?

 

[rsporsche]

perhaps just got tired of the ridicule

 

[rwolak]

Sent the guy an email asking if his price was a joke. His reply: No and I already sold the car. If true, someone got the "short straw".

this whole transaction has been interesting. Most of us in the unique and wonderful association of E9 addicts know the prices and pitfalls of acquiring and maintaining this unique Classic BMW. Out there, it seems there are others who just "want one" . I have just seen an advertisement for a 1973 E9, Autobox, for sale in Dublin Ireland for 60,000 Pounds. (whats that...US$75K, C$100K?) (Dermot WallaceMotors) it is a very presentable Coupe in black. What I am seeing is some enthusiasts just want to have a BMW Coupe and there are not many available and so they pay what they need to pay. Sorta skews values, but I am starting to wonder if the casual enthusiast with an excess of disposable $$$ will just wade in and affect valuations? Hmmmm
