Pictures from the LA BMW CCA Clean Car Show (archive)

Sadly, I was alone in representing non-M E34s at the clean car show, but there were many fine E34 M5s and a host of other nice classic cars. Here are a few pics I and my girlfriend took:

Here is a weird one. It's a 2002 Baur. I thought they only made 320i baurs, but I thought wrong.

This was my girlfriend's favorite. The interior and exterior were both immaculate. The 3.0s are so awesome.

An E30 325i, a 2002, an E46 M3, and another 2002. There was an agave green 2002 (my favorite) for sale at the show that had been sitting in a barn since 1989! Wheeee!

A station wagon joins the parade.

That conspicuously shiny 6 on the badge deserved inquiry. The dude took a big six engine out of some other car and dropped it in. After converting it to manual. That impressed me until I saw the 733 next to his car that had the 3.6 314 HP M5 engine.

These Alpina station wagons are as rare as... something really rare.

And a fleet of E30 M3s. There were about 30 of them at the show.

Here's the extra shiny engine of a european 635csi.

One of my dream cars, except without those lame wheels. Those "EURO M5" plates have been passed around in California many a'time.

This is my mechanic's gray market 5. I don't remember the model. He can be seen, looking like Father Christmas, in the upper right corner.

Here's a row of M5s. Three E34s on the right and an E28 on the left.

A nice E24 M6. Soon to be dishonored by the next generation six.

This was in the parking lot. There were no Isettas in sight, so this served our microcar fix.

Here's an old 3 and a Baur with a wacky interior that you can't see.

My favorite of the show: a polaris silver 3.0 with blue leather interior. BAM!
