    Super nice car OP. Enjoy it and drive the hell out of it when you do.

    That said, I would have ponied up another 10 or 15 large and picked up an e30 M3

    With the prices going the direction they are, I wouldn't even think of selling my 95 M5 now. It will be interesting to see how these next couple years play out for E30s.

    I also thought it was a die-cast model at first. I am looking forward to more pictures. Best of luck with it!

    FYI, I do have a non-faded, un-yellowed basketweave cap for the drivers side front wheel in mint condition.
    That basketweave cap is the only one original to the car.
    The other 3 must've been added in later years.
    It isn't 'faded', it's how it came from the factory.

    Clean car op

    Regardless of the low mileage, she's gonna need some work.

    ^^Ditto on that!

    Wow... you actually bought one of those insane e30's! Please share more pictures!!! You know what, screw the haters, if I had 26k that I planned on spending on a new car... I might change my mind and get one of these. Does it have a kind of new car smell!? Damn, that's so cool. I love the interior shots. Please keep this car as original as you can. except maybe the steering wheel. feel free to toss an M tech three spoke in there.

    ...and fix that yellowed wheelcap.
    :) Twisties are for sure...

    And that yellow wheel cap is going off immediately lol.
