E30 M3 responsibilities

[briansjacobs]

Just going off on a rant here feel free to move along to the next thread.

I know everyone wants their car to be personalized as an individual as them but, I feel when you a car that is so iconic and special like an E30 M3 you have certain responsibilities. The car is not yours and you do not own it, you are the care taker of it until it is passed along to the next care taker. You are part of an exclusive club when you own it and the purchase price is the cost of membership.

With all that said I am not saying the car needs to remain stock, but everything you do should be with performance in mind first. Function should always come before fashion.

TV's have no place in these cars, a radio should only be used to drown out the drone of a road trip. Feel free to flame the old guy.

My M3 is not what got me into an exclusive club. It was my jacket. It clearly says "members only" right on the front.

Amen to that brother.

If you're going to do screens, make sure they're HD. Nothing worse than seeing a 480i headrest TV in an E30 M3.

I am a near 20 member of CCA and past board member in my chapter, however my chapter is no longer active in anything that I have interest in so I have not been active with BMW CCA for years. I think my member number is

119531 if memory serves me right

why is it not listed in your past cars in your sig then??

[briansjacobs]

it is in my sig, 4th car down. I should have put in order that I owned them with it being on top as it was the first car I owned.

could you do that and possibly list the dates owned? Im sure there are many that are interested

[briansjacobs]

OMG, you are a pain my ass. not sure if you are screwing with me or not. I changed the order but the dates are foggy as I also owned non BMW's over the years. BTW best vehicle I have owned so far, my 01 Denali! worst so far, 1992 chevy cavalier that I bought new after my 2002 caught on fire.

[BillBrasky]

Don't forget to list the colors as well.

I dunno man, the Z24 Cav is a pretty potent vehicle.
