    E30 85' 318i

    Here are some pics of my German Spec 318i. Turns 25 on the 1st of April and I plan on bringing back to the states with me.



    Since this pic, I have purchased OEM BMW winter hubcaps:



    Interior is in pretty good shape, was owned by old German lady for 15 years, who kept every single dealership receipt. Since this pic I have installed new instrument cluster with Tac and restored old SI board with new batteries. Next project this weekend will be to install Polk Components in the front, Nackamichi CD400 deck, and polk 6 1/2's in the rear..waiting on premium sail pannels to dremel out factory tweeter and install new tweeters:

    Looks clean. What build date is it?

    Mine is an early 84, didn't even have the wiring for the front tweeters OR maplight mirror.

        It was built in April 1985. The wiring is not already there for the tweeters, but I plan on pulling off the door panels and running from the kick panels up the door and out the sail panels..im sure this will be easier said than done.

          I would keep that as period correct as possible.. Looks great!

                    That clock-tach is amazing.

                      ha...the clock was interesting..but i swapped out with a tac display instead. I had to swap for the new one otherwise i would have given away. I'm sure i can get another one while im here in Germany. If anyone is seriously interested let me know....i paid 50 Euros for the new one..not pictured.
