    trunk tar...

    it's amazing to me that after 4 years of owning this car, I'm still learning things about it. I was poking around in the trunk of my '88 parts car (getting ready to move it today), and I noticed this huge thick slab all over the floor of my trunk. I guess I never realized what you guys meant by trunk tar, I just figured it was a layer under the paint. but holy shit, is that stuff thick!

    so yeah, my car doesn't have any. never came with it from the factory (doesn't have that slab in the spare wheel well either). also, from the specs I've seen the later ix's weighed less than early ones. so much for early cars being so much better than new ones eh?

    anyone else have a late E30 without trunk tar?

      Trunk tar removal is overrated.

          318is's did not come with it. My 318is [as it started life as an 88 325is] has it, nice balance.

            you back woods hick....

            you should remove it since you swapped the m42 into the front end. Now you're just driving an ass heavy e30. I hope trevor sits on your head, or Justin kicks you in nuts.


            And Chris, come right out and say it... dont try and viel it.... we all know what you're really trying to say. "My iX is so much more awesome than the rest of your e30s.... TO BAD ITS SO FUCKING EXPENSIVE"

                No, he cut a check to my tutor to type it for me. My hands are to dellicate to touch a commoners keyboard. We're currently working on a telepathy machine so I no longer have to be assimilated with "commoner" items like a mouse and keyboard.


                Dont hate me just because your state sucks more than ever because Alex left.

                    lol. it's more along the lines of me wondering if all 91's came without trunk tar, but whatever. did you know that a new rear driveshaft and steering rack for my car costs more than half the E30s here? ;)

                          My car never had trunk tar either. It did have a light layer of something that I thought was the trunk tar, but it was super light.

                              fucking hi-larious. Alex is moving closer to the dark side... :evil:

                              Nando, how's that car working out for you? Worth it in the end? :)
