Looking to upgrade to M73...

  • My 1994 M70 850 just ticked 200k and i'm looking into getting a newer, M73 car. Where can these be found? European sites are very sparse on information about cars for sale... I'm simply looking for an M73 engined 850 with automatic trans, AHK, EDC and memory. Those are my only demands. Color we can discuss later. Those options are the hardest to come by. Where can i start looking?

    Current Cars:
    1994 BMW 850 CiA (204k km). My black on black chipped 5.0 liter V12 autobahnmuncher
    1992 Donkervoort S8AT (101k km). The mad dutch "Super 7." 300hp/ton of turbo power
    2013 VW Caravelle 4Motion (26k km). A dark wine red 180PS/400Nm 2.0 BiTDI rocketvan

    If you really want an M73 with AHK the search stops here... AHK was never available for the M73 850Ci and M62 840Ci.

    Well that's a bummer....

  • Adrian: Don't let AHK be a decisive factor. AHK is a great piece of technology, but it's not something you benefit from everyday... unlike for example the 5-speed steptronic transmission which is like night and day compared to the old 4-speed slugomatic.

  • With just ~1200 m73's ever made, some lost over the years the chance of one popping up on the market is slim, and there will never be many available.
    I belive there are just 4-5 of them in Norway.


    If you want a late model e31, get a fully loaded -98/-99 840 sport.


    Of the ~30.000 e31's made, ~22.000 was made from -89 through -94. so there were just ~8000 cars made from -95 through -99, and I think ~6000 of those were 840's.

    If I misspelled a word it's because I'm Norwegian, so bear with me.
