After doing all I could in trying to keep it, its just doesn't make any sense to. Its quite literally the best car I have ever owned.

I have had the car since July and I have had zero problems with it.

It's a 1999 M Coupe with around 147k miles. I am the third owner but the car does have a Ca salvaged title in my name. I do have all the before pictures to show the damage. The car runs absolutely perfect and has very little issues. The exterior is about a 9.5/10 and the interior is about 8.5/10. No expense was spared to bring this car back to great condition.

The car has recently had a full tune-up (spark plugs, oil, filters) and I have recently (past three months) have done the following.

Full shifter assembly rebuild
New valve cover gasket
New gear oil
Full aluminum mushimoto radiator
Spal electric fan conversion
New water pump
New thermostat
New power-steering pump
Rebuilt and resprayed headlights
Ddm tuning 55w hid's
Tinted windows
Full repaint and covered with PPG clear coat
New LeatherZ armrest and new shift boot
New M shift knob
Cluster "Dim Light" rebuild
Moving seat rebuild
Seat tilt mod
New HVAC control light bulbs
Kenwood kdc-x997 Bluetooth deck with stream and talk capabilities
New oem motor mounts
New oem transmission mounts
New oem Guibo
ECIS carb legal intake
Scorpion matte grilles
Depo dark bumper and fender lights
New oem M Logo black floor mats
P.O did the control arm bushings, tie rods
Tires have about 40 percent left and all four roadstars have ZERO curb-rash.
I'm pretty sure there is more but that's all I can think of right now.

As you can see, no frame damage, no airbag deployment, no motor damage. Strictly cosmetic.

The bad:

The car had a small oil leak so I traced it back to the valve cover. I replaced the valve cover and the leak almost stopped entirely. I see a couple oil drops every few days and have traced it back to what I believe is a faulty oil pan gasket. The oil leak is extremely minor and wanted whomever is interested to know.

10 automakers shack up in Detroit hotel to talk Takata airbags

Sun, Dec 14 2014

Since Takata has decided not to take the lead concerning potential issues with its airbag inflators, the automakers have. Perhaps that's unsurprising, since it's the automakers, not Takata, that will take a beating on the dealership floor if consumers decide its models are a health hazards. The Detroit News reports that Toyota, Honda, General Motors, Ford, Chrysler, Mazda, BMW, Nissan, Mitsubishi and Subaru met in a hotel conference room near the Detroit Metropolitan Airport last week to sort out a way to understand the technical issues involved. So far, faulty airbag inflators have been ruled the cause of five deaths and 50 injuries around the world, but neither Takata nor investigators understands exactly why the inflators are malfunctioning. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recently asked Takata to issue a national recall, Takata declined, citing a minuscule failure rate and the fact that it's still investigating the issue. Toyota and Honda then made an industry-wide appeal for "a coordinated, comprehensive testing program" that would pinpoint the problem inflators and get them replaced, and that's what the Detroit meeting was about. Numerous issues, however, will make this a long row to hoe: simply getting the parts to replace the nearly 20 million inflators in cars recalled around the world so far - even working with other suppliers - will take a years, but more importantly, no one knows if the replacement inflators currently being installed will suffer the same issue. Answers will hopefully come quickly with Takata, the ten automakers and NHTSA all independently investigating the problem.

BMW names new chief for Mini

Fri, Jan 23 2015

Mini is still transitioning models over to its new platform, and in the US market at least, the diminutive brand is dealing with a sales decrease of 15.6 percent in 2014. The low gas prices aren't helping either. But as of March 1, there's a new boss running the company across the world as Sebastian Mackensen (right) is promoted to the top spot from his current role as head of sales. Mackensen has been with Mini since October 2013, and according to Automotive News, before that he headed North and South American sales for Audi. Current brand boss, Jochen Goller is staying with BMW family and moving to China to take over as marketing chief for the BMW Brilliance joint venture. He had been the leader at Mini since 2013. Among several other personnel shifts, the BMW brand is also promoting Uwe Dreher to be its new head of marketing. He is currently in charge of those duties for the company in the Great Britain region. Personnel changes at MINI and BMW Group sales Munich . From 1 March 2015, Peter van Binsbergen will be Senior Vice-President, Sales and Marketing of BMW Group Germany. The 47-year-old mechanical engineer is currently Head of Sales and Marketing at the BMW Brilliance Joint Venture based in China. Mr van Binsbergen's career with the BMW Group began over 20 years ago when he assumed senior positions responsible for product planning, marketing and sales at BMW South Africa. He then moved to BMW Japan, where he was Director of Marketing, followed by a move to BMW Group headquarters in Munich, where he led the department responsible for sales channel development and the Group's "Future Retail" programme. Jochen Goller will move to China where he will take over an extended role with overall responsibility for Sales and Marketing at the BMW Brilliance Joint Venture in China. Mr Goller (48), who has headed up the MINI brand since 2013, already has experience when it comes to the Chinese market. During his 15-year career with the BMW Group, he was previously Head of Marketing at BMW China before returning to Europe, where he first took over responsibility for the MINI brand in Great Britain and Ireland ahead of moving to his current job. From 1 March 2015, Sebastian Mackensen will take on responsibility for the MINI brand. Mr Mackensen (43) joined the BMW Group in October 2013 as Head of MINI Sales.
