My mom was the original buyer of this BMW back in 1988. Since then it has always remained in the family... It accompanied my brother to USC and another brother to UNC before becoming my father’s daily driver in Sacramento. In 2007 my father moved to Kansas City and the BMW no longer was his daily driver. He still loved it and put a lot of money into maintenance before putting into his sub level garage to try to keep miles down. For the next ten years he still would drive the grandchildren around the block to keep the fluids moving at least once a year before returning it back into the garage. The last time this car was registered was in 2007. He now is no longer able to drive and doesn't want the BMW to be neglected so we are trying to find its next home. I tried to catch as accurate as possible the condition in the photos. When pulling from his garage, I only washed the dust off with soap and water... I didn't polish, coat or armor all any surface so buyers can see the actual condition of the car. I don't want to hide anything and I believe the car even looks a lot better in person than in the photos. With a good polish compound this car will shine up very nicely. The car is currently titled in my mom's name.
