Nah, don't like red BMWs, especially those that don't require a can-opener

Although I think it looks better in the coupe guise (John Surtees agreed, but he had a blue one, and it sold for £4m, so shows the roadsters have always been unfairly under-valued)...

Classic car market.

It is very pretty. I'd probably offer 15k for it.

while ever people have too much money classic cars will keep appreciating, I'll give him 16K for it

It’s a great looking car.

I like how the Z series (apart from Z1 and G29) have all taken inspiration from the 507’s styling, shape and grills etc.

One of the reasons I like the E89 so much, is that it looks like a modern interpretation of this car.

That red one in the OP and the one Elvis Presley had (which has recently been restored) have the more desirable Rudge knock-off wheels, which can apparently add a 6 figure $value to the price
