How about an e23? Haven't seen one of these surface on oppo....

and to cover the "BMW drivers park like an asshole" stereotype

(The car in question is a 1985 BMW 745i, with the 3.5L turbo inline 6. It was imported to the US when it was around 2 years old during the grey market era. You can see more of said car !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! when it was featured on NPOCP. I may try and do a photoshoot of it this weekend if I can snag the keys and borrow it for a day.)

Boos. I rather like the older 4-door BMWs. Definitely designs that are aging well.

I thought this thing was sinfully ugly when I first saw it, but its grown on me a lot.

I love these, except those are very much the wrong wheels for the car. Too drug dealer

I told him to get a set of M parallels, but he wouldn't do it due to cost, and he won't buy replicas. So he got those wheels off of a newer 6 series. I would either do M parallel sports or BBS but both are expensive.

Before I moved away from Heidelberg last year, I used to walk past this sad sight every day. The just sat there for the whole 11 years I lived there, and is probably still in the same spot.

Huge soft spot for these turbo rocket barges. Little known fact! Callaway of Chevy turboing fame tuned a number of these. I wonder what the performance #s were.

I don't think its a 745i at least, but I know people in the US would kill for the euro front end.

I'd go for 1 piece style 5s, still look good but much cheaper than 2 or 3 pieces. Or reps...my friend is running BBS LM reps on his e30 and they look fantastic
