Beggars Can Be Em Dub? 1992 BMW 525iT Wagon E34

This next car checks the all boxes; manual gearbox, check. Wagon, check. Inline-6, check. Rear-wheel-drive, check.  Headliner...errr...that's missing....and the miles are high, so you will need to do some tidying before you let the wife drive it...but manual transmission rear-drive wagons don't grow on trees. Find this 1992 BMW 525iT offered for $6500 in Long Beach, CA via craigslist. Tip from Rock On!

German Frankincense: 2001 BMW 525iT

The Christian feast of the Epiphany is celebrated on January 6th, (the word Epiphany comes from the ancient Greek work Τheophaneia meaning "vision of God") and is a commemoration of the three Magi visiting the infant Jesus.  Around here we celebrate the Epiphany by posting 3 cars, one for each of the magi, next up is Balthasar who delivered a gift of Frankincense, which is a kind of resin that is burned and represents divinity. I couldn't find a car that burned copious amounts of oil or coolant, so instead I've got a BMW wagon equipped with angel eyes or halos...which is as holy as I could find for a BMW.

The Weiner, Schnitzel or Spatzel? A Collection of Decrepit BMWs From Zach

DT E-i-C Vince: It seems that everybody is putting together fantastic lists of classic junk from their local craigslist.  Apparently, Alaska is not only a great place for changing the name of your local hill, but it is also a great place to pickup a derelict cheap BMW.  Take it away Zach Z! 

-- Tips and words by Zach Z.

So you love 80s/90s BMWs and you've got more time and money than you know what to do with? Do you pickup an E36 M3 project, an E34 5-series wagon, or an E30 325iX?  Why not dive into a 1998 E36 M3/4/5 project for $7,000

Sauber Seifenstück: 1995 BMW 525iT (E34 Wagon)

The clever German title above translates to "clean bar of soap." I'd also like to remind readers that Sauber is the Formula 1 team that BMW owned from 2005 through 2009. They had mixed successes, but it was the debut team for 4-time world champion Sebastian Vettel - where he started his F1 career as a test driver. It seems like Vettel is an old master now, but I was present to see his first F1 race ever, at Indianapolis in 2007 (just yesterday, really). I find it fitting that this wagon not only resembles the proverbial bar of soap (and matches the white BMW Sauber F1 livery) but that it is a clean slate for modification, from mild to wild.
