TIME CAPSULE BMW! 854miles!

I'll pay you $15,000 plus shipping.

My sixteen year old daughter gets her license next week. This is a proper teenage girl first car circa 2018. Once she, or anyone else, drives it a year it will be worth $8k or less.

If it was a 6MT with slick top then maybe $22k.

I'm curious as to why you wouldn't just get her one of the new Civics or something similar?

This is pretty cool!

Is there a story to this car? Was it purchased just to be stored as a time capsule? Are you doing the collecting or someone you know?

That would be too logical and easy.

Isn't more fun to suffer with maintenance and up keep on a used BMW all in name of teaching your kid about rear wheel drive and proper car dynamics.

After dealing with adaptive headlight errors I can say that this is the best option in this car

Less things to go wrong.

What a beautiful car and combo. Manual transmission would have made this even more special, but ppl drive Auto too.
If I were in the market, I would buy this car and convert to 3 pedal

Good luck with the sale

What's the latest any bites off of Hemmings? Curious to follow this very unique car. Also are you going to update the story on how she ended up so preserved.

Maybe sell her back to BMW down in Greenville SC.

The first of many

BTW, don’t all well maintained used cars with tens of thousands of miles run as brand new?

You can always change the bulb

Slap some good Halos and the lights look amazing.

This car won't sell at his asking. He's unrealistic about it. Sitting and sitting just lowers the value...
