Up she goes again!

Has to sell: I'm already modding my little runaround (promised I wouldn't!), so need some spare $$ to keep the Minister of War and Finance happy...

Come and take this fantastic machine off me...

this looks like darth vaders pimp my ride special

why am i finding my self drawn to this car??? i want a E39 M5 but my god this would be a damn close substitute, maybe if my evo or sti sell........

No I must stay strong and sell both and get my M5 lol the force is strong with this car

I hear you: My old man bought a E39 M5 brand new, then supercharged it: I sold it a few years ago, after inheriting it and wanted another E39 fix, but without having to remortgage to get it.

Manual conversion in this car (if you feel the need) and supercharger kit, and you're done! Plus, unless you're very patient and lucky, you'll be driving a M5 with twice the mileage and the fugly 2-tone interior for more than the modded price of this one... :whistling:

Fact - BMW were very close to deciding not to release another M5 for the E39 generation, thinking that the 540i (particularly 540i/6 not sold here) was enough. Good thing they did, but says something about the performance of the 540.

Okey Dokey: Up she goes: much more intetest at this price point, but nobody has taken her home yet: You're still in with a chance!

She may be a bigger girl, but she's a real firecracker when you put your foot into her..... I'm just going to stop now.

Still For sale! :)

juuuust Bumping!

Plenty of interest. No interesting offers!

Getting frustrated with the number of "sight unseen" offers: come and see it. Drive it. Love it like I do!

This car will only go to a good home: it deserves that!

Must be frustrating Micah but it's not limited to your Bimmer, I got plenty of silly offers for my old R34 GTR as well.

In the end yours will end up going to a good home I'm sure. :thumbsup:

I know it will. It just takes the right buyer, and plenty of time... That's cars for you: listed the Wife's Ford Fiesta XR4 about 3 weeks before I listed the BMW: sold in 38hrs: right buyer at the right time...

I'm used to the lowballers: I used to import 3-4 cars per year for the purpose of driving all the "wish-list" cars I had in my teens/early 20's, then moving on to the next one: it was fun...

FYI people: this car has an agreed insurance value of $22500. Someone hurry up and buy it so I can finance more shiny go fast bits on my Stagea!

The Bmw is as honest a car as you will see: only top quality oils and parts used: it IS as good as it looks!

Actually, as of this afternoon, The car is sold! Many thanks to all for the kind words, and much interest! I hop the new owner treats it right...

Mods please delete this topic.

Cheers,

Micah

    • Yeah good luck out there! Will be good to see a mighty GTST going harder than the GTRs
    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
