    wally509 got a reaction from B C in 1981 BMW M1 For Sale   
    Yeah, that Haggerty thing is pretty cool.  Like any classic car evaluator, take it with a grain of salt.  However, my general opinion is that they are closer than Keith Martin's value guides.
     
    There's sort of a standing joke between me and one of my car buddies about these.  Every time an M1 gets mentioned I kick into old man mode and say "oh man, I remember when you could buy these for a hundred grand..." and he would either jokingly flame up or just roll his eyes.  Well this "joke" has been going on since some time in the 1990's.  Having said all that, I would question this chart somewhat.  It has been a LONG time since you could buy one for ~$100,000 as in a lot longer than since 2006 as it seems to indicate.  Just my opinion but I have actually looked at the prices of them now and then over the last 20 years so...

    p.s. I did send my buddy a link to the Haggerty chart, e-mail titled "oh man, I remember when..." so it will be interesting to see his response as the M1 topic hasn't been mentioned in many years at this point.
     
    p.p.s. Cool car!

    Yeah, great pics.  Fortunately, the e21 photographs better than it actually is.
     
    Yes, you should go, there were no fewer than 10 e28 cars there.  About 6 in the actual show area, then the V8 one and at least a few trickled in and out in the regular parking.
     
    Great day, perfect weather.
