    The similarity is striking. Crazy, huh. People are usually amazed when I tell them it is an 11 year old design. When you start looking Jon, up in Ft. Collins maintains a website called M Coupe Buyers Guide (all together).com. He's on top of the market and what's out there. Seems like lower mileage S54's are going up in value, while higher mileage examples have fallen slightly. The best time to buy was '08. The worst was probably '07, when I bought.

      M coupe is hands down my wifes favorite car. Always has been too, even before we started buying BMW's. It is probably the ONLY car I can actually be %100 sure we will buy in the future. I would love a ride in the S54 someday!

        David, how many cars will you own one day?

            I'm happy to oblige with any rides when the roads clear. I have the perfect spot too...

              I will own an S54 Clownshoe one day. (Alex, if you're going to sell it, lemme know!)

              I find it hilarious though that despite the many people who hated the Shoe's looks back in 99-01, the new Ferrari FF looks exactly like the Z3 M Coupe in side profile.



              Methinks the Clownshoe was ahead of its time in many ways. It's on a very short list of cars I must own one day.
              The M Coupe will never age.

                Too many, but I'm never getting rid of the Scoob.

                So true. It's classic.

                  So... if the weather is to be as good as the news is predicting this weekend (2/12 & 2/13)...
                  Is there interest to do a late winter shoot?

                    I could be in. I need to clean my cars though, they're filthy.

                        Fail, Sam. Study ahead of time, give yourself a couple hours on sat/sunday to take pictures with cars.

                          I'm not sure I can get my car clean enough to be worthy of pictures but I am so in!

                              Sorry lads, I'm out for this weekend. Gave my pregnant wife the weekend off, she's spending a couple nights in a hotel alone with books so I'm on full time daddy duty all weekend.


                              Looking for a clean e30 shell for a project.

                                I will not fail. i can't just study ahead of time. I need to study ALL the time. ahead, behind, under, around, etc.

                                also, if i CAN give myself a couple hours, i'll be washing the brilliantrot e30 and taking pics to sell.

                                in fact, I need to get off R3V..... but this thermo is kicking me arse, and I am at a brick wall with this crap....
