There are is in the best condition it's been since I've owned it. I put just over 20,000 miles on it since January of 2006 and I'm sad to see it go. I'm really OCD about it so I've replaced or upgraded just about everything whether it needed it or just for preventive maintenance. It's one of only a handful of 6-speed manual 8's in country and was the first production car ever to combine a 6-speed manual with a V12. The engine makes a ton of torque and even 4th gear starts are easy. It's comfortable to drive, well-balanced, and monster on the highway. MSRP in 1992 was ~$100k. These cars can be found for less than what I'm asking but you won't find another one in this condition for the price.


$22,500

The price is somewhat negotiable to IE/ETK members.

wow i wish i had 22k to spend... i tell my buddy who might want this...

My dad has been looking for a car to buy, i'll let him know it's for sale, Man i love the 8 Series!!!

[chicagoV12]

Zack if he's really interested, give me a call. Like I said, price is negotiable. I'd rather have the car go to someone who knows what it is than to someone who's going to trash it. Let me know and we can set up a test drive.

Ok man, will do.  I am not going to be back in town till next thursday, but i E-mailed my dad this thread, so he can see the pics, and if he's interested i'll let you know 
What's the reason for selling it?

[chicagoV12]

There's a few reasons actually. One, school has taken a serious toll on my bank account and even though I'm working, I'm not saving any of it at the moment. I turn 23 in a month and although I haven't lost interest in the car, my priorities are changing and I need to start building up my bank account. I love the car to death but I can't afford it keep it and accomplish my goals in the next few years. I'm debt free at the moment as well so I really need to stay focused.

Dont get me wrong though. I wouldn't consider this car an expensive car to own. It's been well-maintained and it's as reliable as any other BMW. If I didn't have to sell it I wouldn't.

He's going to trade, straight up, for the triumph 

My guess is going to be an E36 of some kind.....

[chicagoV12]

Nope, this time around it's going to be a new car.
