Love those "Alpina" wheels, so classy and look good on a variety of setups.

I agree, Alpinas look perfect on the car. And I like the zypressengruen color, I had one few years ago. First I thought it was my old one, but the interior is totally different, and lower mileage.

Interesting to see how much this will sell for...

[Pelican Parts]

Wow! You had a super clean one as well. Really great color combo!

I didn't know the antenna could be fully collapsed.

Nice color,

I think those wheels will make any car look good.

Gets old hearing how slow these are. Go buy your twin turbo 3 series if thats what you want.

I love the OMP armrest. Would be tickled if they ever started making those again.

Sold for $5700.

I guess BaT auctions is the place to sell e21's. I mean the car was showing some rust and clearcoat issues in a few places. Was it the wheels and functioning a/c?

Wheels were nice, personally I loved the color combo.

I'm surprised that it didn't bring a little more.

Really? Even showing rust and failing clearcoat? The interior condition was nothing to write home about either. Sure it's a great color but when the paint is ready to explode due to the clearcoat does it really make a difference what color it is? I would imagine those wheels alone have to got to be worth a grand+ right?

I'm not trying to argue with you, just curious to know the reasoning.

I thought it wound bring more as well. Looked like a decent car that needed its seat re-stuffed, and you could live with the paint considering the rarity. But perhaps E21s are still at the point where nothing but the best brings the money (like E36s M3s and unlike ratty 2002tii's).
