want of the day

If some kind soul were to offer to buy me a car outright (hey, it could happen!), I’d definitely choose something like this 1972 tangerine BMW 2002tii. There are so many beautiful old cars about Los Angeles (I’m obsessed with this one in my neighborhood...). The warm weather here seems to make automobiles last much longer! I have to ask: If someone were to offer you a car, no strings attached, what would you choose?

Eek-my little brother bought one of these in ocean blue and white before he even got his driver's license, and restoring it will probably be a life long task! But it's true, it's completely adorable!

Lena - your brother sounds adorable! Even if it does take an entire lifetime to restore, I think it'll be worth it :)

Until now, I have never come upon other person who lusted so after a boxy bmw two thousand two just like I do. glad to find another. I drive a really ratty jeep wrangler soft top and my husband keeps saying, you need another car. but I love it. the only thing I'd trade it for would be that two thousand two. in orange, I think, now that I've seen it.

yes, in orange.
