I'm Confused...

[LikeCDoos]

Alright in my school parking i saw a blue e30 that was quite beat up. After a quick look i got confused. It says 325e on the back, has eta cluster, metal bumpers, but has the 89+ taillights, and the front valence of a i/is just missing the fron i or is spoiler. So i'm really confused what this car originally was. what do you guys think?

there was a 325e in 1988 with the later lights and front valance.

[bimmerphile]

no, 1988 never had a 325e. only a 325.

Production of the post-facelift metal bumper cars started in 9/87.

The last 325e was manufactured in june of that year.

CDoos...did the back look like the car in my sig?

Pre-facelift tails are nasty. *shivers*

Pre-facelift tails are nasty. *shivers*

Post facelift cars have fat asses.

Pre Facelift is more graceful and raw power.

Yes it did, does your front end have a facelift as well?

I think bimmerphile might be right because the "e" at the end of the 325 looked like someone had put it on themselves, it was a bit crooked. So it must have been a 88 325.

...88 etas have two pipes. Pretty much the same as the "i" exhaust system visually...save a few "minute" differences upfront.
