Great looking car. You're missing a centercap.

Nice car, but not a huge fan of that kit on it. Seems like too many body lines going on at once. That being said is that front valence a OEM replace for stock? Or is it over the stock pan? Rear apron is cool, and if you know what actual oem part/# it is...

His car is in fact, an original M Technic ll. BMW built the model in 91 (178 cars, 3 colors) & 92 (1000+ cars white & several blacks), all 1178+ cars were cabrio's. There is quite a difference in features (and sticker price) on the 91 vs. the 92. As an example, the 91 had a FULL leather interior, including door cards, door pulls, console & glove box, came only in black leather with the Evo ll cloth inserts (not offered on the 92's). The 91 had all the bells & whistles where the 92 was fewer features & and larger production numbers. The BMW production code on 91's was "#771 M Technic Luxusausstattung" - 92's were "#770 M Technic weia/schwarz".

Their are a lot of fakes out there where people have slapped the body kit on a cab & call it an M Tec. Before you pay a premium price for what you think is an M Tec, run the VIN in BMW's data base, code # 770 or 771 will appear & it is the ONLY way you can insure authenticity. Search this board "Vin", Aaron, a true cabrio maniac, provides this service.

Both years are referred too as M-Tech ll. The M Technic l kit was available only as a euro car in 86-87 on the coupe (disclaimer -M technic l info is not documented & could be different). Their is not a lot of information on the M Technic ll cars - and more mis-information than correct stats. While both cars are desirable because of limited production, the 91 is the hardest to find & commands a higher price than the 92 because of rarity.

You are correct, www.e30ic.com has much information on cabrios & very detailed info on the M tech ll. Kieth has done an excellent & time consuming job on compiling all these stats & updates this web site with new documented info as he uncovers it. On his site, the words M technic are used referring too the 91 & 92 cars. M technic ll is a term that is used on other boards to differentiate between the 80's (M Tech l) & 90's E30's ( M Tech ll). BMW called them all "M technic".

in 91 the appearance package was also availible. mine was produced in 4-91 and has been verified "Real" through the dealer.

OP Keith from e30ic is traking these cars so go ahead an send him an email. BTW great car I love seeing the M-Technics.
