Wasnt this car turboed before, and what happened to the beautiful glossy black hardtop?
Did you part out the turbo and sell the hardtop seperately?
Yup. I had the car for sale for months and months with the turbo and hardtop with no interest. I sold off the turbo setup and sold the hardtop, now time for the car to go aswell.
I have a buyer looking at it on sunday, we will see what happens!

Sorry to see you selling this. Before I figured you were entertaining selling it with everything intact and if you didn't get your asking you'd just keep it. Now I see you're forced to take it the rest of the way. :( Good luck with your sale man, your cabrio is the car to which all other MTechs should aspire.

PS I hope business is treating you well.

Car is gone, I got what I deserved for it so I had to let her go... Look for the new owner on the forums soon!

I don't mean to rain on your parade as I am happy that you sold your car and have found a new owner for you pride and joy....but.......what you have just sold is NOT an ///M-Technic car. It was sold new as a "Special Edition", which shared the same bodywork as the "official" ///M-Technic convertible. The real ///M-Technic convertible came in Silver, Red, and Blue and had the ///M-Technic cloth and Napa leather door pulls, center console, and side bolsters, 15" 4x100 basketweaves, and Motorsport suspension.
The "special edition" had the ///M-Technic body kit, was available in white/white with 14" basketweaves or metallic black/black napa leather with the same wheels in black. No suspension or leather accutremounts.
IIRC, ironically they both carried the same factory cost for the special edition and the ///M-Technic. I think the option for both was $3,495!!! A lot of money in the early 90's!
I worked for BMW from 1986 to 1994 and don't profess to know every little detail, but I do remember the difference between the two convertibles.

OP is well aware of this and the car sold for a great price given the work done.
Whomever got the hardtop got the real deal
FWIW roundel did an article about Mtechs oh about a year ago and valued them at low to mid teens.

No harm intended, I am just kind old school (and old too!) and on a personal level I just like to differentiate the two models. Most folks don't do that. As for the car itself, I have seen it in person and the PO really did a nice job on the mods and very respectfully kept the car to a high standard. The new owner bought a very nice car. Again, no harm intended!
