      If youre worried about spending a few hundred dollars on a 20 year old car maybe you should hold off on buying it...

      As time went on, the factory developed the car each year, making it faster, more comfortable, and capable of handling at higher speeds.
      You don’t want this. You want the trickiest, most dangerous, oldest model you can find. Only then can you prove to the world that you’re a man.

        lol im just wondering now, how does one go about getting the m3 tricolor stripes on the front corner of the hood? i also saw one that was on the lip of an e30 and it looked pretty cool, subtle but cool. is it a decal or custom paint?

          You could do it either way but having a vinyl made is going to be more cost effective unless your good at painting

                        this is a awesome thread. theres the 3-5 people telling you to save your money and replace parts first. then theres the 2 guys telling you to use stained glass spray on your tail lights and paint your sealed beams.

                        youre pulling interest from either side of the fence on this subject. im amused. continue

                            ^That's true but I think everyone is trying to say that a reliable car is better. No point in having the car look good if you can't drive it.

                                Rear end another car and start to part it out before insurance shows up.
