That's a shark (Jaws) sound if you weren't catching on. This style BMW is a 635csi, also known as a shark. It was built in 1989, the last year BMW made this model. Doesn't it look like a shark?
This is a cool car. It was my Dad's, which he bought in 2000, and we have kept it these three and a half years since his passing, but we rarely get to enjoy it, or take it out on the open road and drive it like it's meant to be driven. I have driven this car many times over the years, and I always enjoyed it (while feeling super cool).
This car needs to run. It needs to be enjoyed. The shark needs to swim fast and take some corners.
So, my family has thought about it much and decided to sell it. We are all sad that we have to, but none of us can afford to keep it. All of us would like to keep it, of course. But we know it is not practical for any of us to maintain it in addition to our regular car. We want a BMW enthusiast to buy it and drive it. That's what Dad would want. My Dad was a believer in driving your car, even if it's a "show" car, like this one, which has been garaged and in many car shows. If you aren't getting to drive it and having fun, what's the point of it? After all, it is a car. And cars are meant to be driven. Especially the shark.
