eBay Motors: BMW : 8-Series (item 110244703521 end time Apr-25-08 15:33:37 PDT) (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/V-12-Luxury-Coupe_W0QQitemZ110244703521QQcmdZViewItem) :D

A nice example indeed and the type I would look for if moving over to a 12. It seems like it's had normal and sensible upgrades thus far but it got me to thinking after reading the info... if I owned the car I'd still consider doing a driveline conversion and if it would actually devalue the car. I mean taking the seller's description with the insertion: "A conversion to manual shift was done in 2008 with all factory components and a new transmission by certified BMW personel". Logic tells me it would narrow even further the buyer pool. I know you're perfectly happy with your car as it is and don't want a manual. Would you have posted the same thing with the above scenario?

Sure whynot..If the conversion was done right I may think about shifting gears again..Lol..I think the car is VERY WELL PRICED..And has all of the upgrades plus some that we all do to ours..It's just turn the key and play..As they say," the car does have eyes"....

Wow, I would definitely have to agree with you there Mark. She is beautiful and the owner seems very knowledgible. She looks very well maintained!

seems like you will get at least 12k as you already have 2 bidders on it.
