I am salivating on a very special 850 and most likely I will have to move my second 850i with 72K miles on it.
Right now is in midle of all major work, intakes, all hoses, gaskets, etc, etc and should be done in 3 or 4 weeks....
What $$$ should I ask for it?
Interiour is in perfect conditions and this car is unique in terms of interior color, only 16 of them in USA....And is white exterior....
What you guys think?

Ethan

we would like to see some pics... I've never seen a white interior on the 8s.

Hey TxGR8White (http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/member.php?u=154902) http://images.bimmerforums.com/vb3images/statusicon/user_offline.gif can you please post one of your interior pics please? I know I've seen it somewhere but can't remember where. My car is in the shop right now getting all the major work done and I don't have an interior pic....I will soon...
TxGR8White and I we have the same 850 models, only 16 in the entire USA...

After this car is finish it going to be a REALY good catch guys since I will show all the parts being replaced. When you will see the price for this 72K miles you won't resist, so better start acting now :-)
I will not be making money on, I just break even and get my dream exotic 850 :-)

Here are some Interior shots: (Ethan, did you send that package to me??)

Thanks for the pics TxGr, and I will be packing Sunday and dropping it off first thing Monday morning. Will be there.. I gotta write some quick instructions as well...
Hey watch it, the 850 police is here crossing the border from their fk'ed up place to a more quiet and civilized one....

my 97 has the same color interior . I'll post pics soon. actually it is a tanish grayish white...isn'it???

Ethan -

I would be interested, I think you sent me an email a few days back.

3 to 4 weeks top. I am doing all the major engine work right now, nothing wrong with it, just preventive stuff, all the way from the IM gaskets to top, basically the entire top of the engine....
Will keep you in loop when is ready..... You can contact me offline as well to discus details if necessary....

Ethan, Who's doing the work?

8eights, this time I decided to let my mechanic do the work due to my time and availability constraints. I travel way too much to be able to deliver the work myself. I did the work on the other 850 and is not that hard to be honest...I kind of enjoyed it...
So basically I am having my mechanic going through the same list of items to replace like two years ago....and I ended up ordering the same parts from Gault and Autohausaz. Something interesting to notice is that this recent parts bill is about 15 to 20% higher than 2 years ago :-( and that's a bad sign around the state and availability of 850 parts....
Does it answer your question 8eights?

Cheers
