My e36 slicktop was pretty floppy compared to modern cars so can only imagine

That is a very strange auction. I’ve been watching it. I really don’t understand the whole time capsule car thing, but I guess...good for this guy for saving this one? It’s probably more pleasant to look at than to drive, anyway.

Yeah, I don't get that one either, beyond hoping that you can find someone in 5 years that'll pay even more for it than you did. Seems like a risky investment from that standpoint.

I'd like to think that if I were rich I'd buy time capsule cars like this, then post a video doing a burnout leaving the seller's house.

Should be easy enough to do on 31 year old Gatorbacks.

Why would it need a new transfer case in 8 years?
