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

          And that yellow wheel cap is going off immediately lol.

              thing is, even with such low mileage OP is gonna have to dump some decent coin into it just to bring it back up to snuff and keep it reliable. You can't compare this car to a new one, since seals (rubber gaskets etc), get dry and leak. Especially if the car is not regularly driven

              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.

                Time capsule e30... that would make for a good signature for you.

                        The other 3 must've been added in later years.
                        It isn't 'faded', it's how it came from the factory.

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