Ha, yes it was for him. I purchased a 94 325i for $500 with a blown head gasket and a broken auto transmission, but a clean body and interior and most every option that could be had on it when he was 15 1/2. Our summer project was to get it ready for his 16th birthday. We got great deals on a rebuilt M50 w/12k miles, a reman auto with 17k miles and a Bilstien sport setup with H&R sport springs. It's going on 5 years since that rebuild and it still runs strong.
Always cool to do things with your kids. I don't want them to be helpless about things, car mechanical stuff included. 😎.
