Hell, *I* would love to have that. If only it weren't priced about $20k over what I'd think it's worth.

How much does it cost to federalize a car like that?

Answer: About $17k http://speedydaddy.com/1992-bmw-m5-t...le-in-florida/

I don't have any idea what it's worth, but it's awesome.

Of course, if you want to be practical, it costs about the same as what I paid for my car, which is 16 years newer, probably just as fast or faster, and is not made entirely with parts constructed of unobtanium.

But that one is so much cooler.

I'll take a new Audi S4 wagon, thanks.

All true. And as you've noted, when there is only one of something, who can say what the price "should be".

Still, at that price, the opportunity cost thinking kicks in. Heck, one could easily do a 6-spd conversion on a low mileage '03 540iT for less and have a car just as fast but much cheaper to fix and with plenty of modern comfort technology to boot.

Edit: Owner should keep it around for its parts. Has one in his own collection:

Gah, I prefer the other one--that interior is...Individual. But the M Parallel wheels remain the best looking wheels that BMW has ever put on any car, IMHO.

Wait, do those fit on E61s?



EDIT:

Maybe yes. Oh, I know what I want for Christmas.

EDIT:

No, wait. The offset is all wrong for AWD cars. D'oh. Back to wanting 135s, I guess.
