They had just dropped to $9,999. New manager and didn't want an old car on lot/no warranty etc. So we discussed him wholesaling out. Short story, paid $6,700.

$250 for power electric cord and probably needs lower arm bushings (20 years old) but after 5K of miles, runs great. We use to run out to Blue Ridge parkway and hiking etc.
Sorry no pics, 1988 325i bought for $800.

What a great daily driver it was. felt fast, low and great handling. Even now, i would have driven it.

too bad it had a bad gasket and blew smoke in the exhaust. i would have kept it but after so many plug-a-gasket (metal powder that you pour inside of the coolant and it will freely float until it plugs the holes in the gasket.)

Had to junk it eventually, but I miss it sometimes.
