That's not a limited edition, its a 330Ci SE with an aftermarket bodykit, possibly an AC Shnitzer(sp)?

lmao thats exactly what i told my dad, but he insisted it was, "its what the dealer said".

Shame to hear about the death of the GTO, what happened?

I am sure he's missing the performance and sheer torque from the turbo's from the GTO?

Still its a nice BMW!

As max said, he was driving to work, coming off a roundabout onto a dual-carriageway, puts his foot down to hard, hits some ice and spins it, headon into the center barrier bounces off and ends up on the other side of the road in a bush.

We both miss it a lot, we were gonna restore it, but because parts are limited to find, and mitsubishi charge pathetic prices for parts new, he decided it wasn't cost effective. It certainly is one hell of a car for the price.

Oh and btw, Fox and lordmike, the question was how did it happen, not whos fault it was.
