If The Mari Celeste Was A BMW Dealership...

A normal building? Let's look closer...


The story goes that in '88 the dealer, Citation Motors, had his concession license revoked for unknown reasons. They then moved to Toronto under the name Downtown BMW, which in 2002 closed up shop. The owner, apparently a well-off German business man, seemed to have no interest in selling the place, or even the inventory, as everything seems to have been left behind intact.



An E24 635csi, 68 or 6000km on the clock (depending on who you believe) frozen in time.


Another 'fly in aspic', this time an E28 5 series.


Out back; looks like an E23 7 series, another 6er, and what looks like an R65 bike.


More from the service dept; that E24 may have been on the ramp for TWENTY THREE years...


Don't fret; it's just a picture...
