sticker price of e30's

[Rsully70sev]

Damn, that's a pretty cool thing to have the original sales sticker or invoice. Documentation on an older car is always cool, brings a bit of history to it.

Holy shit! My first car was a 1976 Cadillac Seville. It had a list price of $13,000 not including the upgraded wheels, Rolls Royce grill, and a few other things. It's 2012 equivalency is almost $60,000.

e30 costly car, when new.

Ya just imagine all the people that went in and where like meh, i'll take the vert!

Yeah, it's a vert. The M3 is not a vert. DGMW, M3's are fun to drive, high rpm. But, lugging around in town. Not so much fun. And, no sunshine or "face-time". Gas was about a dollar a gallon. Why not a v8? Four cylinders were for nerds.

How are you guys figuring out the 2012 worth. My Mtech was $42k in 1991, how much is that now?

[Rsully70sev]

I used this website. You're at about $70.5k

[Stanley Rockafella]

Damn, 55g's on the nose.

I can see it. Esp. considering how well it's held up since 1988. I'd say it's a worthwhile investment since it still looks stunning in it's old age.

Right from a "Warranty Vehicle Inquiry" my 89 Cabrio was sold 6/30/1989 and MSRP was $34,985

Imagine e90 335i in 2032..I just can't imagine 20 years old 2010s cars at all. Would they be running well like many e30 are?

I have the original window sticker for my car. It just proved to me that the guy i was buying it from (original owner) was a tight ass bastard and got the cheapest E30 on the lot which i argued and picked it up for $1000. :mrgreen:

Mine says the MSRP was $37,470, isn't that the base price? As you can see mine was optioned out so who knows how much it really was.

wow its crazy how much inflation has hit in the past 20 years

says someone who wasn't alive in the '70's.... the last 20 years are stable when you compare
them to the period from 1968 to 1986...
