My first posting. How do I find the BMW E90x forum?
Thanks
In the 'Gassing Station' bit of the forum, scroll a bit down and it's down there, Link here: https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/forum.asp?h=0&...Thanks
There's also a good couple pages on facebook which are handy for various bits and bobs, if you're on facebook. I know one of them is "E92/E93" specific and there's also a more generic "E9X" one, too.

I'm rather confused. BMW built over a quarter of a million E93s, which is nearly 70% the number of coupés, so they're by no means rare. In terms of spec, what's listed is fairly typical.
I'm also confused why rarity matters. Surely if a car's good and if a spec's good, then lots of people buy them. This is the case for the E93, which is a good thing isn't it? Rare cars are normally either a bit pants, like the Megane cabriolet, or very occasionally they're deliberately built in small numbers, which certainly never applies to mainstream cars like BMWs.

Really, Rob?
Been looking in Autotrader for sometime now. The only other E93 that had similar spec was an ex-demo 335i. How many E93s can you point to with the spec on mine, or better?
There are 12 E93 325i cars for sale on Pistonheads alone. That’s not rare by anyone’s definition.Been looking in Autotrader for sometime now. The only other E93 that had similar spec was an ex-demo 335i. How many E93s can you point to with the spec on mine, or better?
Of course if you want your exact spec it’s going to be rare, but that goes for every car ever made. That’s like saying daisies are rare because no two are exactly the same.

I own a rare BMW, it’s about as desirable as AIDS though, rarity is no guaranty it will be valuable.

Are you being deliberately obtuse?
I’m talking about the spec, not the make/ model of car.
Challenge you to find one as loaded.
Plus the FBMWSH, one owner, 6 month warranty and under 50k miles.
And all for under £7k.
