scored this cheap off Craigslist nearly 16-ish years ago. a recent college grad needed to offload it before packing up their Subaru to move across the country.
when it came time to finish the deal and part ways, I remember asking ”look, are you sure??” and she let out a long, deep sigh before replying “…yeah.”
anyway, I like to think I’ve taken good care of it ever since.

Idc there’s something so chic about my car that costed me 2k and is paid off and so gently used by its previous owners. Having a CD binder in the car makes me feel like my mom. 10/10 overall.

It was love at first sight. I purchased my L.A. car for under $10,000 with only 70,000 miles on it and was basically in mint condition. I love this era of BMW: boxy but sexy, sporty and dynamic. It's the same car Dionne drove in Clueless, but the black-on-black version. My favorite place to drive it is through Beverly Hills (ALWAYS take Canon with the top down…). I loved its '90s interface so much that I had my guy, Avi, figure out how to install bluetooth while preserving the CD/tape console for its appearance. If you are ever shopping for a used car, particularly of a European vintage, you have to go to Avi. He's the most honest dealer in L.A. and he loves restoring old models. Whenever something little breaks or acts up on the beemer, he fixes it and doesn't even charge me. The day I bought it he told me "I would rather fix it for free than have some other mechanic fuck up my work. We're in this for life." I think relationships like this are so important.

someone snapped this at a recent show. love it because I look old as hell and I’m grateful to have been around with good friends and hobbies this long.

(minor spoilers, I guess?)
a few long take bangers in this film, but the battle scene near the end is so goddamn good. follow Clive Owen and the pregnant young woman in his care as they get caught in a skirmish between two warring factions. Cuarón is the best.
