i went to stuff-mart last tuesday, when i came out there was a 93' 525 parked next to me. as i was loading my kids the owner walked up. had a short chat & he seemed to be an enthusiast.
then on saturday i see his car smashed up on a towers lot.
news paper said there was no injuries, but it looked pretty banged up.
is it just me or are e34's a dying breed?

there are two e32's at a repair shop near me, both totalled though. today i drove by and while sitting at the stoplight i glanced and noticed a hood opened the "wrong" way, it was a 540 that had been mangled from behind. depressing.

They keep falling off. Mine is getting ready to turn over 250,000 miles.

Bangle is out to rid the world of all the BMWs that compete with his design.

the youngest ones are 12 years old... how much longer will they be around?

All cars are dying breeds eventually. :(

Do notice that not many board members are commenting on age and condition for fear of bringing bad luck upon their E34's...sshhh...

My 535i is the last m30 that my indy sees on a regular basis. If these cars have noe been taken care of, the tab to get them back in shape outweighs the value of the car.

Mine has a build date of 10/95 so technically, she's 10 years old, going on 11... They do grow up fast...:p

I'll admit... I murdered my 89 535i. Black Ice is a bitch. But I drive the '95 like i'm ridin with the Pope in the car.
