Holy crap, Dave is selling his car and getting divorced?? That sucks!! I'll have to give him a ring to catch up and make sure everything is cool.

I have driven this car and it is pretty scary! Tons of torque and an awesome engine sound.

Do you have the link to his post so I can post up and vouch for him?

[Steve85]

I was completely shocked myself.

Here you go. I'm about to send him a PM. I like the ideas of selling it to friend to buy back. I don't know if it's even possible to make that work, may depend on the nature of the divorce...

I think this car is kind of cool, but it definitely needed a bigger engine swap...like potentially a newer M5 engine. And the price tag has to be a joke just to get attention.

"I decided today that it is not worth parting with my baby for less than $250,000. So the price starts here, regardless of any logic. It's mine and when someone wants it they have to pay my price to get it, period. Otherwise one shall build his/her own."

Yes, you read correctly; up until today, the asking price on eBay for this customized 1988 BMW 6-Series Coupe was a mouth-dropping quarter of a million dollars. Almost as insane as the $950,000 for the pipe-dream Plymouth Road Runner Concept we told you about in a recent posting. However, after a truckload of questions and suggestions but not a single offer, the seller decided to change tune and reset the auction setting a starting bid of $45,000.

So what's so special about this Bavarian 'shark', we hear you ask?

Well, aside from the obvious (rims, bodywork, special bodykit, full leather interior etc), the 1988 635 CSi Automatic has been completely overhauled mechanically with a 315HP 3.5-liter inline six-cylinder engine from the 1992 M5 E45 and a manual gearbox.

Overall, the seller claims to have spent over $20,000 in parts and more than five years of his life in building this project which he says comes to a total net cost of more than $92,000.

And while we truly admire his dedication to the project (read the detailed description on the eBay page), somehow we find it extremely hard that he'll even come close to breaking even.

On a side note, we couldn't help ourselves from looking at the pictures of the classic 6-Series again and again, thinking how well the coupe's "aggressively-elegant" design has aged and wondering if we'll be saying the same for its current day descendant in 30 years from now...

i thought i recognized that car. i can almost hear the Magnum PI soundtrack in the background...




and that BMW 6 is a hot car! but with the ridiculous price tag it's obvious the owner doesn't really want to sell it. i guess i could put up my Titan on eBay for $40k and see if i get any biters. :lol:

[WRXtranceformed]

All you BMW leghumpers and nobody has anything to say about that car? :lol:

[Mike]

i think it looks like garbage? i love the 6, but that is fuckin' ugly.

[BLAIR]

I agree.. Id rather see that car stock. Look at the junk ass body kit. Bumpers front and rear are molded to the body. Thats the most retarded thing to do ever. and the exhaust looks like shit too

[Steve85]

I appreciate the mans efforts to make it his own, but it doesn't work for me either.
I feel the need to redeem the 6 series. Maybe a set of mild springs and +1 on the wheel size.

[Mike]

i have neighbors who own a white m6. it hasn't moved since they moved there in ~'88. i wonder what the deal is there....

God I love the old-skool 6-series. There's one back home that I passed every day this past week going to work. That kind of champagne color, 635, so hot right now.

After college, I'm buying one.

The Z sounds like a pretty good deal unless it's a rust bucket. Low-pressure fuel pump will set you back ~$75. Having a shop cut out and weld in entire new floor pans on both sides is typically estimated at around $1000-1500 (virtually all labor, new pre-fabbed pans are only $300). Depending on the state of this car, it could just need some sheet metal patches...
