***Pics of your 1st ever E30***

[KIRIEIW]

Heres mine, I looked at over 10 cars till I found it. Best part... It was free! Didn't run but after a new engine (M20B25 Swap) and tons of parts, Its the most solid e30 I've ever driven to date. I plan to keep it for a long time yet.




and a pic of its more current look,

Bought this pile of shit for $100 when I was 14 in 2007. Actually was a pretty nice car then. Needed a trunk lid from a careless PO. 197k and all original Zinno paint/panels and a mint Natur vinyl interior. The next day, my house was cleaned out so it went away to replace all my stuff.



Bought it back 3.5 years later in a little rougher shape than I sold it. Guess that's how it goes. Post M50 swap and E36 5 lug conversion.


I drove the shit out of this car for a couple years and wasn't too nice to it (to say the least). It still was a blast to drive but something was lacking so...S50 time (pic is with Hans the traveling roundel).


Now under going heart surgery. Might be back on the road sometime this decade. It will see boost...eventually

My first e30 and first car I bought myself at 17; 1988 325ix with plastic bumpers and well over 250,000 on the chassis.





I drive the crap out of this thing since the day I bought it. I spun it and broke the front subframe and cracked the oil pain. Spent the spring/ start of summer fixing it and refreshing the suspension just in time for last winter to abuse it more.





Then I blew the HG and decided I had enough with this car and it being AWD and parted it out. Honestly this car owed me nothing it was fun first car, it taught me how to work on cars, and at the end of the day because of the part out I ended up making money on it and using a lot of parts for 318is drift car.



This was the end to that car. During the winter I miss it, but it had to much rust to be worth it anymore.. :(
