      Nice M42 you got there. That car has potential...may you have countless days of ear-to-ear grinning when you hook up that suspension and go corner carving..trust me you will grin ear-to-ear ;)

            I have seen an inordinate amount of E30's with dents in that place. There is a guy walking around with a golf ball wrapped in a towel doing it all over the country!
            Just livin in the OC minus my E30

                Nice car. Clean interior, LSD, and it has an IS lip. i'm really liking that people are getting wise to the 318is. I'm sure you'll have a blast once you do the suspension.

                    I am extremely happy with the car. Haven't really gotten a chance to push it through the turns yet. But in my daily commute, I am ecstatic. So far, I've gotten bored and debadged it, painted the basketweaves anthracite, and painted the kidneys black. looks a lot better.

                    Pros:
                    -Fun motor (for 130hp, its peppy)
                    -Balance: even on the stock suspension and 60 profile tires, I can tell this car is -VERY well balanced
                    -RWD OWNS
                    -BMW interiors own Japanese interiors.
                    -Cranking the sunroof in front of girls:P

                    Cons:
                    -"Stick in a jar of pudding" shifter
                    -only reving to 6500
                    -4x4 stance
                    -needs a tad more HP

                    thats just a quick review. I am very satisfied with the car, even stock, coming from my modified Type R. All of the cons will be corrected by Christmas.

                    I can't wait to autocross then track the car.


                    Edit- I forgot to add, I need to do some brake work, at the very least pads, fluid and lines. Also, I dont think this set of rear tires will last too long :D
