Wanted - Picture for coffee table book. Silver/Red

[swiftruss]

Polaroid picture from the "coffee table" book of a Silver/Red Z8.

I have a red/red item for exchange if required.

I just got my book from Bill Stuart. What a nice guy to talk with on the phone. I will be sure to thank him tomorrow.

It is for a black-crema and my car is silver-black, so if anyone is looking to trade their silver-black polaroid for a black-crema, and maybe even their black leather cover for a crema one I am game.

[Norcal]

Is it black with "sport" crema, or solid? My book is slightly wrong for my car, as it shows the crema/black interior. Might want to trade with you.

[Charles]

I will check when I get home. Is the leather that covers your book black? Mine is crema.

Ok, I checked. It is hard to tell on the picture. The seats are wrapped in plastic and they look crema, but the headrests are black. I can't tell if the sides of the seats are black. It really only shows the driver's inside side bolster which sort of appears black, but it may just be the center piece between the seats. Wish it were clearer. The leather cover is solid crema.

[Norcal]

No, mine is crema. The outer book wrap should be in the color of your interior.

I have a silver-black book if you are interested in purchasing. . . . . Whatever fair market value is these days.

Jurgen is coming to Dallas early this spring and says he will trade me a black cover and silver/black picture for my crema cover and black/crema (crema-sport black?) picture. I think they need my colors to complete their collection.

Hi All,

Couldn't agree more about Bill Stuart. He has just sent me the book in the UK. Mine has a crema leather cover and the photo is of a topaz blue car with crema. Any one with a silver and black photo and black leather cover and I'll swap.

Hi MrcJackson and Bwall

i have a great idea, Bwall offered me his silver with black book, thats the one MrcJackson is looking for while i am looking for a blue with Tan book. So maybe i can buy the book from Bwall and trade it with you MrcJackson? Sounds like a good deal for all three of us? Can anyone inform both Bwall and me on the fair market value of the book? Both bwall and i do not know that.

[mrcjackson]

Hi ! Great minds think alike. Just sent you a message with the same suggestion. It'll probably cost $15 or so to ship from UK. Chris

[mrcjackson]

There's no need to exchange books - just the leather and photo. Chris

[macfly]

The best thing to do is swap the leather & polaroids for sure, as it'll save a ton in packing and postage.

The market value of the books is hard to really say, they were selling for around $750 each a few years back, but in the last few years Bill has been very kindly supplying Z8 owners with books, so until his supply is gone they really don't have a market value. However, in the fullness of time, I do excpect that they will return to the region of their previous worth, if not higher.

[jwgerritsen]

Andrew, maybe a stupid question, but who is Bill? And how to get in contact with him to see if would he me supply (owner of topaz/creme z8) also with a book?

[macfly]

Bill Stuart looks after Z8 owner customer support at BMW NA, but he is on his yearly sabatical till April 16th.

You could try reaching out to Sal Talarico while he is away, and if you are a registered owner in their system I'm sure he'll be able to help.
