I agree that a high milage E32 750 is a good car to buy if you don't care
about money. However, in defense of the other E32's that were available in
US (735, 740), they are definitly good cars. My father's 735i has 240K
miles on the original engine and transmission (auto) and it still pulls
strong and is a lot of fun to drive. His being the short body style (i as
opposed to iL) and it handles incredibly for a large cars with stock
suspension - much better then my 200TQ (also stock as far as suspension
goes) He is thinking about upgrading to a 740i and as long as the engine
has been replaced it should be a good buy, and a real fast car.
