: I'm looking at an '85 635 European model found on the internet. 70,000 miles, great cond., $9,300. Is this a good deal (from what limited info. I can provide)? And what exactly does the european add compared to the US models? I know the hp is up a bit. Does it have the same safety ratings and construction specs, and what about performance? What about servicing and parts availibility? Will I be disappointed with this model? Excuse me for all the questions -- I'm European-illiterate.: Thanks!!!
The Euro cars were fitted with a cat when they were federalized. smof test should be no problem. Insurance can be a problem as the VIN # will not register. The price sounds a bit high. The gray market cars, while superior, did not have good resale. That being said, I would buy another if I could find a clean one. I previously had an 85 M6.
