Interesting choice on the BMW wheels with mismatch between either side

Thanks Evan, I sent a message on the trofeo and the accord.

Newold - those BBS Bugatti wheels were an option, the fourth wheel was in the trunk but had a pretty good dent.

Go around to Milwaukee and pick up the 5 door 626 GT. F2T greatness, amazing 5 door versatility. It's listed at $1700 and I suspect the seller would love to see it go to a young woman who is showing her journey of automotive appreciation and ownership. Yes it's a 5 door, but they're sleekish and the utility on them remains amazing. And torque, silly amounts of torque. 

 

F2T greatness

She said I could have it if it was going to be worked on by my daughter and I. It's a heck of a drive out there though.



edit: actually it's only 5.5 hours

Wire wheels? Interesting in an odd sort of way.

Sounds like a practice for challenge participation and roadtrip, possibly while looking at potential future schools on the way down or back. 

 

I've found that vehicles where the owner has a sense of who'd the like to get the vehicle come with stacks of maintenance records, insight to quirks and issues and honest assessment of vehicle capabilities. I wouldn't think twice and would be going for the 626. It'll also handle the hauling and moving stages of life well.

You have probably seen this one, I imagine too much work to get it ready.

Those pictures are NOT representative! The entire car is disassembled and he isn't sure it's all ther still.

Look for a mid 2000’s Chevy Impala or Buick .... dime a dozen.

It's been up for 3 or 4 months, they might be willing to deal.

He seemed pretty knowledgeable about it, doesn't seem to want to sell it but can't fix it himself.

Buddy of mine had one of these more than 20 years ago.  It had lived through a massive hail storm so he took the insurance money, replaced the windshield, and just drove it.  It looked like a golf ball with all the dents.

Apparently it made him invisible to police because he drove everywhere at ludicrous speed (well over 100 on the highway all the time).  Never even got pulled over.
