Any other infos are highly appreciated.

Gmachmeir Spezial, a car from Austria. I think based on the NSU RO80

That's right! At least that's what I have as well!
Do you think there's a way to prove this...?


We had a Gmachmeir NSU before which looks so different!

Experts? Pro's?

Well, that's my source... :D


BTW: Gmachmeir wasn't/isn't Austrian, but Bavarian (from Munich)

Somewhere on the internet i looked up (much earlier) the name Gmachmeir in a telephone connection database.
There seems to be one telephone connection in Germany related to the name Gmachmeier...

I do have this playing card game, too.
And I think it is the Gmachmeir (without the second "e") BMW Coupé with the inline 6 BMW engine used in the E3 limos and the Baur CS-Coupés. It mighty be based on the latter one.

The 1975 Gmachmeir NSU is a totally different car, I´m sure.

Thank you! :)
The rear light are seemingly from the early BMW 5-series.

Is it plush or mold on the windows? ;)

Yes it seems to be deep pale green plush - ridiculously bad taste stuff like it was used in many of those wacky 1970´s van pimpmobiles...

I'm curious what it looks like from the opposite angle... the rear end seems to be completely made of glass — (similar to L. Espada & M. Khamsin)

Which is quite senseless, because it is completly filled with this wacky interiour textiles

BTW: we had the Gmachmeir NSU before, which is a quite pretty car.

I think I give grob the point and declare it as "solved".
Maybe someone comes with more infos later.
