View Full Version : I threw up a little in my mouth when I saw this listing
ethanw 07-14-2008, 03:20 PM Who would pay $38,950 on a 56,708 Miles 97 850CI? Is not even a TT or a CSI.... I got mine in the $20K range at 16.500 miles....
Man I wonder what kind of stuff we smoke sometime :-) Don't get me wrong is a nice car but who would pay that? I would rather keep it.....
There are some other rare examples as well...rare as in overpriced :-)

Erm, how in the world can it have updated DMEs on a M73?
I've also never heard of Dinan manifolds for the M73. Were those produced?
The wheels on that thing aren't bad, but I like my ACS Type II racing wheels better :)

Not when I last asked.
They did offer the manifolds for M73s for both the E31 and E38.

I would love his TT, Either one of them, It's bad timing right now and truely a buyers market, I agree with keeping them til things get better, The 8's True value will return,--------------------IMO!
smokum 07-15-2008, 01:00 AM A CSI clone with dinan stuff on it would be a better chance of something close ,like this one

can you say: "high in the night"?
This guy is the most unrealistic person on the planet. Plus, I tried to see this car but could never arrange it with him. It seems to me he really has no intention of selling it - just trying to "show off" for the masses...
...but his Cadillac STS, now that's another story!

Did you notice that the dealer is located in "High-land" NY?

It is possible to reprogram the M73 ECUs, but very expensive. A complete reprogramming of Motronic and EML is about US$2.500,-
Incl. free flow system plus K&N about 370HP

Is the problem that it is OBD2 because the chips have to be reflashed right?
