    Mileage is right...Condition is not....at that price, it better be a 10/10 car with all services up-to-date.

    I personally don't like the V12 motor either

    Black/Black...BORING!!

    Price, obviously, is high for the Ci. If it was a CSi, though...

    It is definitely not collector quality and not a desireable year/model. As for the price, I wouldn't be surprised if he gets it. I've been stopped on the street and offered some crazy offers. Many of the parts, however, are obsolete and must be oem as they aren't interchangeable with other models. $1700 for a headlamp replacement!

    The CSI's are far and few between and fetch around $50k.

    Hmmm, I got about $9900. That should do it, if all services are up to date, the pads are okay, tires good and headlights in working order. Oh, make sure the A/C is working right too. Way high to fix one of them.

    "...attorney owned..."?!! That qualifies for a discount!!! :)

    "Supercoupe"?! "Super" is so over used these days- "Supermodel, Supercar" Blah Blah Blah. How about "Superdumb"?

    And Bimmerista is right, I dont like the v12. My M5's V8 is much better :)

    Definately overpriced...

    Hey Tillman, where did you find that '72 Ranchero GT? I grew up with one of those, and was there the night of its death. 429 V8 in ours, I outran Firebirds all day long to the point that it made their owners angry! :)

    EDIT: Never mind, just found it! :) And it's a 429 with the gauge pack! :D

    No bucket seats. Too bad.

    Hmmm, just noticed the 66' TBird in the background of that other pic. Another car I've always wanted.

    Remember the 850i experiment with my college student. I think Dallas Eurocars had it more than he did.

    I was shocked it was not quicker and more fun to drive than it was. Not the V-12 experience I expected.

    Just another costly lesson adding to my long list of black holes.

    Don't forget he is also a "professional adult."

    I on the other hand, haven't gone pro yet.

    Exactly! It probably has years of damage from unhappy clients!
