    BMW dealership that closed in 1988 still has new cars sitting on the showtroom floor. I'll take that 6 seies coupe!

    +1.. These are bimmers. They probably suffer from a billion electrical issues - even if they've been sitting around LOL.
    You have a couple of photos that are great... you must be very good at photoshop!

    I hear that someone inquired about buying that 6 series and they want something like 75k for it.

    Same as all manufacturers. Made in China parts.

    They're certainly big, but I don't know if they are the BEST I've tasted.

    I just read the postings from the local BMW forums. Still a neat story, one guy talked to the owner of the building (that building has to be worth a ton of coin in itself...just google map it 2357 Royal Windsor Dr, Oakville, ON L6J 7X6) He keeps the cars maintained, they are even for sale. He wants $75K for the white 635 coupe. There are also some more pics on the forum link, even some of whats inside the shop area.

    It's not the size that matters, it's the taste it leaves in your mouth.

    First thing I thought is I wouldn't want a car with 23 year old fluids in it, but I guess he maintains them.

    That is odd he maintains them and holds onto that land, I get he is wealthy and all, but seems like no point to it at all.

    Not jealous at all, why would I be? Just curious as to why he keeps them there and the land for no reason.
