I left a post on the e32 board as I am thinking about buing a big ole 750 as an addition. I'm not going to ever abandon the e23... promise! but wanted to ask a few question about the car in general as I really have no clue other than very minor things. Any of you e23 guys know anything about a 750, specs, differences 88-95 96-newer, etc, your opinion would be greatly appreciated. Here is what I wrote;
I am from the e23 and e24 board and have several old BMWs. I own a shop that works on corvettes and am a
mechanic, but am no expert on the 750il. I have heard nothing but bad things on how hard they are to work on, what a pain everything is, etc, so I think I want to buy one... Kinda my way with cars as I own the most complicated cars built, callaway twin turbos, ZR1s, 745 turbo and about 7 others, so I thought a 750il would fit right in with an over complicated car collection. I also see that there are some pretty good deals on some very nice cars, so it seems to be quite a car for the money, unless its just not worth the headache....
I am considering buying a 90-95 low mileage original condition 750il and putting the chip(s), exhaust, M parallels, etc on it and driving it possible 2-3000 miles a year. I also may be able to buy a newer year like a 96, but wanted to ask currect knowledgable persons about the advantages/disadvantages of the 89-95 and 96 newer cars. I dont care about
the "bells and whistles" differences, but the performace and reliability, suspension, difference of the two cars along with long term maintinance issues. I prefer the looks of the 90-95 with the exposed front lights, but if the 96 and newer is a better car with better performace, even if I do a few mods to a 90-95, I want to find out. Give me the low down please!
