: : How can you tell if a car is a grey market import, if so what are the advantages/disadvantages of this situation?

: Early gray market 6 series cars tend to have rust, especially around the shock towers. But they are quicker,have more horsepower, and are about 400lbs. lighter(more fun to drive). After driving a euro 6, you will be disapointed when you drive a USA 6.


i am thinking of buying a euro 1980 635 it has rust on the rear towers, can anyone give me any info how bad this is, and what i am looking at to repair it, and what is involved in repairing it
thanks dave
