Abbey, the Amazon, was a fortunate find -- one owner no rust Californy car, extremely stock. We were hoping to make a showpiece out of it. For better or worse my daily driver 544 got totalled when rear ended and the Amazon took over commuting duties of 500 miles a week.

The good part is that I got to know the car well and was highly motivated to refurbish the front end, braking system and replace the tires. She runs almost as good as she looks now. It seems a shame to put this many miles on such a nice car though.

My better half suggests letting the 122 go and commuting in a newer car. Twenty year old Bimmers are undervalued right now. Heck, a late '80's 525 can be had for less than what we paid for the 122. I dunno. What fun would that be? Miles of wires in them things.
