hey guys!

new to r3vlimited...been a member on b-forum and e46f for a while. finally got my e30 about a week ago. sitting in a hanger for 2 years and completely unmolested. $900 drove it home, some spark plugs, motor flush, and oil and she passed smog. doing the timing belt this week, and blacking out the kidney and window trim next. after that, gonna [try] and keep her stock! maybe a lil drop.. pics as follows!!

wow, thats very nice! welcome.

Nice car but leave the kidneys alone. A 5spd 325is in that condition is a rare find. Have fun with it.

[AbsorbantNut]

That is a rare find. With that nice black interior and uncracked dash. Youll love this car for sure.

I agree. Cars like this are getting fewer and fewer. Leave it as it is.. Or at least H&R springs with Billy Sports.

i'm getting a kidney for $5 that i'm gonna paint and play with, but keep the stocky in the trunk to be safe!

what do you all think about painting the door trim? i think it looks really clean in matching flat black if done properly, but i do want to keep it mostly stock.

keeping the 14 basketweaves forever!

also, the seats are mechanically terrible....the only function that works is the rollers....

[tg318is]

nice find! definitely paint the door trim

[N2MYE30]

Painting the window trim black is called shadowlining and yes, it will meet our approval. :) These were painted black on the 318is and M3.

[BillBrasky]

$900 was an absolute steal for that car. It would go for 4 times that much in the midwest.

[325ix]

Very good deal, Gotta love the alpinweiss

[StereoInstaller1]

Damn fine choice, man.

[TheFightingCPA]

Now I'm kinda pissed cuz I had spent all sorts of money to get my car into the shape yours is in. Beautiful car man good find!

That looks super clean (from what i can tell) nice pick up. To me it looks like a perfect candidate to keep stock (stock i mean stuff that was offered from bmw/alpina/hartge/ac schnitzer) and well maintained rather then something to molest with mods.

[tehwickerman]

900 bucks? damn you're lucky!

[The_Nietzschean]

900 is what I payed for my 318i and it is in terrible shape. Great find. I would go with the shadowline and a small drop.
