This E28 M535i or this E31 850Ci - which should I buy?

Hey everyone,

So as the title suggest I’m comparing these 2 awesome machines. I know they are totally different in almost every aspect except being very limited production cars. I’m torn in between the two. I have 2 vehicles that are available for sale at the moment. Comparing the two:

E28:
-1985 Model
-Has 5 Speed manual tranny
-Has LSD
-Has all the electronic gadgets like Trip Computer and Check control
-All the original keys, spare key, booklets etc available
-Has Recaro M Technic seats
-Newly restored by BMW, only has 1000km on the clock
-All Original
-Also supplies BBS rims besides the original BMW ones
-BMW classic certified
-Has PPO+
-It is being sold by a BMW dealer
-45000€ asking price, I think we can negotiate down to 40000€ as the vehicle has been on sale for quite a while and was 55000€ when it first appeared on the market.

E31:
-1994 model
-Has 6 Speed manual tranny
-All Original except a small localized paint work done by BMW
-Has the sweet V12
-67000km on the clock
-Everything is working, no Pixel errors or such on the displays
-All things aside, it’s a freaking 8 series!
-48000€ asking price but not sure if it will go down

What would you go for? God forbid I’m not thinking of selling them unless I have to but I also don’t want to be a dumb dumb if the day comes. Collectibility is more important to me. You can see my garage as well for comparison between vehicles (only the bimmers are listed). Love to hear your thoughts and opinions...
