The 1990s-designed Bimmers have a certain charm that modern, overly-gimmicky, rolling HAL-9000s on wheels don’t have. Can you even find a 5-series with a real (i.e. 3-pedal) transmission any more in the US?

If you’r going to get rid of it, at least sell it to someone who’ll fix it up, not to the crusher to be made into scrap metal to send to China.
