I was wondering if anyone could tell me what the black / blue book price ranges would be for a 1976 530i (not California emissions). It is in very good condition with 93,000 miles (149,000 kms) on it. Silver with blue leather
interior. I am interested in buyingvthis car however I think the guy selling it is dreaming considering what he is asking for. I would appreciate any input or anyone who can direct me to a website that can provide black / blue book values for this car. Thanks e12 ers.

Black/blue price book will be of little value......

When cars get of this age it's much more realistic to judge the true condition of the vehicle and offer a price of what you think it's worth.

A really nice driving 75-76' 530i might go for $4K to the right buyer..... I saw a perfect example (with increadable low original miles, for something like 15,000!) that was recently for sale, asking price was $15K!

That said, a decent NON rusty car that does everything well (but needs cosmetics etc) you can still find for $700-1500.

Usally the later US 80-81 E12 chassised cars w/5 speeds bring the highest prices ($2K-$5K).

But a good M535i or Alpina could hit $15K+ (I saw one recently advertised for $20K).
