Undoudtedly this guy believed that he achieved the secret desires of the designers that penned this old 5 series. If only they could see that he succeeded so completely where they obviously fell so short. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif)

And, it's a 528 "e", for "Extreeeeeeme". Shows just how awsome you can get with a little effort, and even less taste. The Cap'n

It's a good thing he wrote "not for sale" on the winshield. If he didn't he'd have tons of offers to buy this beauty. Then ahain, mabe it would be better to just remove the used car lot year stickers. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif)

From the front it reminds me of Mel Gibson's car from The Road Warrior.

Of course during a post apocolyptic show that was made in 1981 it was pretty cool looking, but then he didn't have that crappy tail on it either!

I love it!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/aktion035.gif)









I just wish they'd move that bastardized (ex)BMW out of the way so I could see the Jeeps better!


As for the POS in the middle of the screen, it probably looked "tight" at the time... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smoke.gif)

What terrific aerodynamics-not, A snow plow has more efficiency.

Shows you how bad a fad can envelope an individuals tastes.

When I see a large rear wing on a car in a major metro area I wonder who let the owner out of the institution? In most instances the the extra weight of the wing is assisting in applying greater downforce than any aerodynamic effect of the wing.

Driving with one of those on your car is like wearing a sign saying owner is mentally challenged.


PS: If I have offended anyone who personally has a mammoth wing on their 914 please accept my apologies. Then after you think about it some more send me an email and I will try to help you take it off your 914!!

OK all you duphasses...

I'm sure you all the same ones laughing at the 914-6/GT with those "funny" flares or the 911R with those goofy lights. Or the 911RS with that strange "Duck Tail". It's appauling to me that you all missed the fact that this is a true one off "Factory" ZRD 528R/GT!

BMW only made 300 of them for LeMans GT class homogulation. Most were distributed in the Bavarian region with only a few known being exported to Puerto Rico. Back to the books RICH! I'm ashamed of you.

Those hood alone are going for $6,000 on eBay. That factory front spoiler has spawned a few cheap imitations (seen on green 914's). The wing was a first in aerodynamics. Many F1 teams moved over to a similar design.

HaHaHa... oh how the uneducated scoff. You guys are "pathetic!" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)














(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/w00t.gif) (anyone gonna ask about ZRD?)
