I could be wrong but it seems like there's one or more previous owners with a lot of regret. They didn't know what they had (with the factory interior and paint hidden away)
It bid to $135 on May 9th, didn't sell.
The owner is a friend and BMW CCA member and his wife, Dottie. Super nice folks. Martin has a unicorn as a DD - Dakar yellow 318ti with California roof, 5 speed. Chapter members are lined up for it whan he passes it along.
