Last week I wrote about agreeing to help my friend Tom sell his 1989 635CSi. The car, one of 248 small-bumpered 208-horsepower E24s with a factory five-speed, has a limited-slip differential and retrofitted sport seats, making it beyond unicorn-rare.

Last week I felt paralyzed by the fact that winter had moved in while two of my cars were land-locked in the most important spots in my garage; my 635CSi was on my lift and my 3.0CSi was in the easy-access spot behind the garage door. I hadn’t intended to configure the cars and the space this way for winter—I kind of got caught with my pants down.

First, let me say that I’m stunned by how much e-mail I received about my “Will The Hack Cross Over Sometime Soon?” piece. Such a volume is normally reserved for when I write about considering the purchase of massively compromised vehicles like The Great White Six-Speed Shark or The Vixen That Wasn’t.
