BMW 507 - A Million Dollar Offering?

This afternoon i'm gonna kick myself... i could buy one for 60 grand about 20 years ago? and now estimate: is 1,8-2,2 million... pfff..

I think it's one of the most beautiful cars ever.  well done Count Albrecht Graf von Goertz! (for the aluminum body)

It has a V8 but as strong as a L24.. 150 horse..  But yeah.. it's a 1959 car.. 

Mecum does auction off 5! datsuns... 😮

260Z 2+2 with this in the description: Power with a 2.6L with a longer wheelbase that makes her look even prettier.

I guess everybody is entitled to his/her own opinion, but the car does look nice.

This 1977 280Z brought in 50k on BaT today.

Exactly.. the further in the past you get, you get less hp but more cubic inches 😀

These days a 1.0 turbo does the same as the L24

For your consideration, would the rarest Z be a 74.5 - only 3 months of production -  260 2+2 with automatic trans?

What does RNM mean?

Never mind: Reserve Not Met

As lots of americans don't realise, the 260z was made till 1979 when the 280zx came out.. so there are a lot more 260z and 260z 2+2's ... In america there was the 280z and the rest of the world got the 260z's..  I don't know for the rest of the world but we overhere in the Netherlands could not GET a 280z!  (only grey imports.)

That's why a lot of older guys here, who lived through the 70/80s in their 20/30's confuse the 280ZX with the 280Z 😅
