Bimmer related that I don't think I ever shared. My first car was a 1979 E21 320i. It belonged to a big time Hollywood agent who represented some of the biggest names in Hollywood in the 60's and 70's. The car was a POS by the time he gave it to me. I remember picking it up from his house in Bel Air and accidentally keeping it in 2nd gear the whole hour drive home. I was surprised it didn't blow up, it took 10-14 seconds to get to 60, it smelled like what I would think Benson & Hedges smelled like, and there were weird stains in the trunk of all places. I absolutely beat the crap out of that car, shifting to neutral, redlining it and dropping it into drive as I voiced off the rev limiter. Probably made that auto trans look like it took a grenade.
He had some other pretty nice cars but I like to think he would pick up some of his clients and take them to lunch in my bimmer every once and awhile. Maybe Jack Nicholson-because that's the type of clients he actually had judging from the photos in his house-did coke in the back seat with Janice Dickinson and now some kid is doing parking brake drifts in a KMart parking lot with it. The tranny died not soon after and we broke all the tail lights pushing it home with my buddy's '87 Civic.
