Kenny Rodger's 512BB??

looks good . Price isn't bad.

 

Rear bumper is from a BBi.
Probably needed the seat leather replaced from all that chicken grease on the seats.

 

have the seats been re/trimmed or just covered in paint?

 

I had that car inspected at Dave Helms shop a couple of months ago and would be glad to share the info with anyone.
shoot me a pm if you want Daves take on the car. John

 

I'm interested...

 

Still amazes me how many people cannot figure out how to take an in focus picture.

 

Waiting in line to get a key at the Benz dealer one day in Atlanta and i'm standing behind this guy going off on the counter girl. "Do you think i can drive a car like that?" "Do you know who i am ******* it?" "I'm Kenny Rogers.... and i'm not driving that little piece of crap car when it's your fault mine doesn't run right!!" "*******" X4.

Car looks good. good price.

 

Looks like a nice car. I've never heard the Crapola about the 15,000 miles thing before.

 

Good day all,

Indeed, the car looks not too bad and the seats do look good. What puzzles me a little, is that there appears to be a red dusting around the engine bay (see engine bay pic...) and the jack bag (see jack bag pic). Perhaps over-spray from some paint touch-ups? If so, it is odd that the vendor would not clean up these areas. I am not trying to be picky, it just that its odd to see this.

Cheers,

Sam

It doesn't sound like he has the patience required to be a Ferrari owner!

 

Good eye, the whole car, I believe, was resprayed.

 

You can tell the black on the deck lid was painted gloss too, nice......

 

Well, ya know........A little nip here......a little tuck there........it's all young again. At least he's consistent.

 

might be saying that those are really KM's and not Mi's

 

I assume the previous owner was Kenny Rogers the musician, not Kenny Rogers the MLB pitcher for the Detroit Tigers?

 

Just because you put a little lipstick on a pig, it doesn't change the fact that she's still a pig! This car has got "roach motel" written all over it.

Now back to our regularly scheduled program,

pretty car

 

Imagine him winding out second gear...
You're my.....
LADY....
Then off to get some Roasters.
What about the 84 BBi from Preferred Auto Brokers for $96k???

Just looked it over again......aside from the other obsevations/comments already posted, a few more to add to the pile:

"Both EPA and DOT was performed in California."
In Cali., but no mention of a CARB cert/sticker?

"The car got a hand-stitched dash, special carpets, Air conditioning, other improvements, etc......."
zOMG!! 1!! 1!!eleventy !!1! ........ MY Boxer must have been owned by Kenny, too !!!!!! Did the Gambler put AC or dash stitching in anyone else's cars here?

"She is the correct Ferrari color combination of Red/Tan. "
Then why not the "correct" Boxer trim, if he's going to go there?
And then, there's what looks like that special rattle-can glossy black on the engine bonnet and wing.....

And is Kenny Rodgers REALLY the celebrity stigma you want to attach to a car?
At least the leather won't need restretching anytime soon (the car's; Kenny is another matter)

 

38119 is the last 512BB, this car is very close to the last one but its still a turd.
