Yeah prices on just about everything is up ...not just car parts.

For the range of E53, we still have a wide selection of quality and prices. Genuine, OEM, aftermarket ranging from good to junk. New and used.

But any manufacturer of parts for E53, E39, E46, E83 and other models 15-20 yrs old is starting to think about scaling down production (or already has) as these cars are hitting junkyards in numbers. It's going to get worse soon for anything other than routine maintenance. Many vendors are listing closeouts.

I am helping a buddy fix-up a '91 Lotus Elan and just spent $100 on 4 plastic pieces from England. A very different scenario on an older limited production car...but yeesh...I may actually 3D print some of the things I need.
