    I am wondering what you guys think would be the value of an original one in good condition with ~120K miles. It is a full out authentic Dinan built and sold car with suspension, exhaust, turbo, EPA legal, etc...

    Here is the info on them:

    you have a really really rare car, and you caught an insane deal on said car. if you had bought it from someone that knew what it was, $10k or so, probly more

    It's worth exactly what you paid for it, and not a penny more or less. When you sell it, it will be worth exactly what you can get for it, and not a penny more or less.

    "It's worth whatever the market will pay"

    All true statements but I just want some perspective, if it is possibly a $10K+ car, I will have the rims refinished and not worry about putting money into it...

    I tried searching and it seems bimmerbros had 1 of these... However all I could find was their photos and not for sale listings. I am going to give DINAN a call this week too and see if I can get some documentation or more information.

    Id guess if you found someone into this it would bring 12-15k. being a regular non turbo brings 3-8k currently in Michigan US for a 535.

    yeah, between 10 and 15k, cause the technology is a bit older, but still its really rare..... TCD has newer stuff out, but still its $$$$$. so yeah. between 10 and 15
