    OK

    2008 (I’m the third 3rd owner, 320i automatic completely stock with a noisy diff)


    End of 2021 - doesn’t look too different, but mechanically there is almost nothing left of the original car!


    Beware the modding bug :)

      ooooooh this is fun. I'll include a few of the projects I've had over the years.


      FIRST E30! '89 iX Coupe (had to pay Photobucket $3 to get these)

      Auto, rusty turd. I built shortened coilovers for it, manual swapped, fixed rust, added sports seats, etc etc. Cosmetically it was a bombshell. Sold it to a buddy for like $3500 who installed all of the stuff I gave him and finished it off.

        Yeah I bought mine in 2015 from a guy who had basically just got it running. It was sitting in his garage and really dirty. There were cleaner ones on the market at the time. But for some reason I had to have this one. It's not show car by any means. It's rough here and there. But I've done a lot to it to get it where it is today. I absolutely love the fact that I own it. Everytime I walk into my garage it gives me a smile. Best 3500 dollars I ever spent.

                  Damn sorry to hear about this. But hopefully you got something new in the works.
