:o are you sure that's right I bought the car with 185 bottle caps and it's 5 speed manual and it's registered as 86 and it says in the engine bay atlantisblau

hmm, you sure the dash hasnt been swapped for some reason? Idk about those cars but usually on e30's you can find vin numbers on fender/trunk/door areas as well.

Where are you checking the VIN? Its listed in multiple spots. If the dash was swapped out and the vin numbers werent switched over, you could be reading an incorrect vin. The vin is listed on the inside of the doors, on the front fenders, in the trunk, and on the dash. I think its stamped on the strut tower too?

edit: now you beat me to it lol

It's impossible to find it on my car I'm reading off of my registration card which I have no idea where they got it from but it's registered as 316 1986 with that vin now on your vin lookup it says manual and automatic on the optional

I got no vin on the dash can't find on the firewall or windshield so idk nothing on suspension thingy next to atlantisblau in the engine bay and my trunk is stripped plus the battery is in the front

Its a late production so it could maybe be considered a 86, but the other things done quite jive. Swap could have been done, but that wouldn't account for the difference in color name.

Why cant you find it on your car?

LOL lets see who gets this post in first.

edit: vin should also be stampped on the firewall near the driver side wiper iirc

Look here. Right below the windshield wiper

[FLG]

LOL yes there ^^

or is it the passenger side wiper?

I'm positive I don't have that but ill check again it's on the glass right and why would someone swap a possible 1.6 to a possible 1.8 some drugs they were on :p and the po might have mentioned that they changed the bumpers to plastic since the window trim is double chrome

No. Its below the windshield wipers, on the windshield cowl, just above the engine bay firewall.
