    There was a pretty clean one on the Pelicans forum sale page the other day for $6,500. Not a euro, but lots of options like moon roof, etc. Kind of high miles at 170k-ish. I was depressed when I read the price. A lot of car for the money. Pics help sell. Also you can check against prices on BAT.

    This page doesn't list e23 seperately, but if you hover over the dots. you can see the year of 7er sold and compare to yours. Seems like 5 - 9k as an average. Good for buyers. These car are luxury!

    Bad factory paint beats a shitty respray any day of the week. Post pictures. Yours being a more simple N/A car with pop up pistons and manual trans would do well I would imagine on a place like BaT.

    I was just in Lafayette over the past weekend, funny!
    I make E23 parts.

    Ford, MB, and GM round out the pack.

    Odd car, buffalo leather but no rear speakers factory and no OBC! Neat!

    My woman's folks live real close to Picadilly aka Pickadick. Meche's and Bordens are my vices when out there. They are off Montrose Ave and whatever the main drag is there.

    Nice, clean car! I would put it on Bring A Trailer as well and see what the market brings.

    Anyone know if this car would have trouble being registered in CA? Clearly it is a euro car, but damn I would love to have it.
