E12 market
 

Anyone familiar with the BMW E12, 72-81, market? Getting a lot of business and hard for me to understand throwing longhood money at these cars. Bubble?

If you think e12's are taking off.....e9's are going CRAZY!! I was going to restomod mine until my body guy alerted me to the rise in pricing from 3-5 years ago. I still wish I had my '76 911s but....I'll be pretty happy when this one's done!

I don't see any E12's fetching long hood money. Most expensive recent sale on BAT was in the mid teens for what looks like a pretty nice one. That said, I know nothing about them. I did have a 83 533i years ago, that was a fantastic driver's car.
