Baders;

Back in the day (before I got old), I grew up surfing. Always dreamed of going down under to catch a few. Never made it. Everlasting regret.

Yup, Idaho is beautiful and a hunt, fish, camp wet dream. I have two BMW's, I don't have time for wet dreams, or anything else for that matter. I'm just grateful I'm retired. I can't imagine how anyone who works can find the time to stay on top of these little pieces of German engineering.

See ya

Very Sweet Ride. Enjoy!!

Wheels appear to be period correct 16 inch BBS Mahle. Look at the center hub section of the wheel and all pertinent information is cast/stamped there.

Front and rear spoilers appear to be OEM units, also appears to have Zender side skirts which is a rare option.

Ralph;

Thanks for the info. I know BBS is a manufacturer, but what is Mahle? Are they a distributor/dealer like ECS, or what? Seems like I've heard their name attached to aftermarket german parts.

Zender, are they a U.S. or German manufacturer? I've never heard of them.

Noticed your a NHRA/F1guy. Haven't kept up with F1 this year but always make time for NHRA. Force doesn't seem to be having a real kick-a** year since he and Prock parted ways. DSR cars are trouncing him at every race. The only one making any money is Brittany.

Thanks again.
Oh by the way, I posted a pic on the interior forum of the steering wheel in this thing. Check it out. Maybe you know what it is.

See ya

MAHLE GmbH is an automotive parts manufacturer based in Stuttgart, Germany. It is one of the 30 largest automotive suppliers worldwide. I believe they actually did the casting and forging of the wheels for BBS. They are also an OEM supplier for many German auto manufacturers

Zender is a Belgium based automotive company that makes aerodynamic parts, wheels and other parts. They are still in business and were big in the 70's-80's.
