Here's a Oldsmobile Cutlas hood ornament...

No wonder the brand is thriving.

you may have - it's been part of a car "rotation" for much of its life so it only has 8x,xxx miles. but I have no intention of parting with it.

I was at my friends BMW collection yesterday, which included a completely MINT e30 M3.
We took it out for a couple hours, and I have a whole new respect for it.

Collection included (but not limited to)
M1
1M
M3 (E30, E46 Cab, E92)
M5 (E39, E60)
X5M
2002 Tii
I'll try to grab some pics off my phone this weekend.

Forgot to mention the best part...
He tracks every one of them. M1 included!

I had an E30, black with maroon interior. Had to sell it, way too expensive to maintain. I think the dealer was raping me, esp when the valve cover gaskets needed replacement in just over a year. Went with Merc after. BMW's are great, esp if you have a good mechanic, but after 70K miles, they get real expensive real quick.
