bought a BMW today
I was hanging around the auto craft shop on post today, and I saw it came in to be junked. its in great condition on the body, engine looks clean as hell, inline 6 520i 4 door sedan, the guy that turned it in said it needs a clutch and a complete exhaust system, has a small dent on the passenger door. I drove it around, and it drove great, only clutch I see bad was the cooling fan whining.
I never owned a bmw before, and I reallly don't like them either, but I decided to give it a try. this won't be a race car or nothing, just a daily driven car for my wife to replace the mazda.
don't have any actual pics of it yet, since I havent done any paperwork yet, but I got for $300 . and whatever it takes to get it passed inspection is free from the recycling yard because I bought it from them, and if I changed my mind by tomarow I get refunded. its a 90-96 I am not sure what year since I only paid for it to secure it, so someone else don't get it before me.
here is what it looks like. will post actual pics when I register it.

Re: bought a BMW today
they are sometimes free for newer ones than these.
if I would have cought the guy before he turned it in, I would have gotten it free.
he had to pay the recycling yard $89 to take it, then they turn around and sell it if its not a bad car.
