SOLD. (Updated 2/22/04)

We found a nice home for it today just across town. It will still have a BMW big brother in the driveway, a nice white E23 7er.

It was the first car I ever bought and has served me well. 195K miles.

Car Fax shows just two owners and mileage consistent with my records.
The report printed 1/25/04 comes with the car's paperwork.
