too cool!
funny to see that they either decorate their houses to park their cars in what should be their living room or they build 8 garages boxes and are left with a few square meters to live in. great thread to just dream away for a minute, fabs!

apart from the many many cool cars, and priceless cars, what kind of awesome beemer is this??

The BMW shown is known as an "E9" or coupe.  These were offered in America with a 2800 (2800cs) and later starting in 1972 (3000) or 3.0 cs and 3.0 csi.

It is basically a 2 door version of the Bavaria which is actually a better driving car, but doesn't have "the look".  A few times I've come very close to purchasing one of these and my do so in the future.  It is just finding the right car for the right price.  Although beautiful they do have rust issues.

A good friend owns car #16 and currently it has over 400,000 miles on it.  For those of you who go to Cars & Coffee you will see a dark blue coupe belonging to Murray Fowler.  That is the car.
