Ingo ◊ 2008-07-11 15:57	I guess, a 1.gen 5-series.
G-MANN ◊ 2008-07-11 15:59	Is that just a guess?
DynaMike ◊ 2008-07-11 17:25	The 1st generation 5er had a bonnet that reached till the beltline (so the upper part of the fenders was part of the bonnet)...
Weasel1984 ◊ 2008-07-11 17:35	It's a first 6 or 7.
Skid ◊ 2008-07-14 11:28	This would have been an odd car to find wrecked in 1988 (when the movie takes place).
rusty_mutt ◊ 2008-07-22 12:23	I wondered if it was possibly an E21 320i at first, but given the shape of the hood I'd have to concur, it's an E23 7 Series or E24 6 Series. Would be nice if there were better pictures available.
londonitalian ◊ 2008-08-17 05:46	Its a 6 or 7 series, more likely a 7 as 6`s were more valuable, but who knows...
antp ◊ 2008-08-17 16:52	For what is visible of it, I am not sure it is worth giving it its own page: a mention in movie comments may be enough.
garco ◊ 2008-10-17 08:12	Agree.
Kloga ◊ 2014-01-05 21:41	I'm really surprised to find that this one was identified...
