I am the original owner and have had the car since 19. Always treated it with the respect and care it deserved. Have 2 set of KW coilovers, 3 sets of rims and so much hard earned $$$$ in mods, maintance and exterior detailing lol. It was an original SMG that I enjoyed until 2016 and then converted to BMW OEM 6 speed. So much sentimental value. Sadly, I do not think it would sale for more than $7k and what is really the price I could swallow to let it go for? I cant even say $20k lol. I am delusional and in love with a car that is probably had over $100,000k total with original price paid of $60k included. That was very sad to type.
Would love for my 3year old daughter to learn how to drive this car.

Since you are not going to recoup the $$$ you put into it and you are madly in love with it still, keep it and continue to enjoy it. In 12 years, teach your daughter how to drive it and continue the bonding. It will be a great story and point of pride for you both when she will be only a handful of her generation that can actually drive a manual.
