    Just got this weekend.

    Well long story short i wish i had an actual camera and could take some day pictures. Trying to borrow one but just to give a little taste until then. Here is my new e30. It started its life out as a 1984 Euro 323. My dad aquired it around 92. He has put a lot of time and money into, But over the past few years he has just has let it go downhill. I do not blame him at all. He has been a mechanic for over 40 years if im not mistaken. I have always had a love for e30's and honestly its because of his e30. I didnt understand at a younger age why his was so much more badass to me then others. It starts with the euro bumpers, And gets better from there. Just to say ahead of time i am sorry if any info is incorrect. So i went to visit my dad this weekend to cook some ribs and try and have some male bonding. He told me he was going to go buy a new car on sat. Said he was tired of working on cars. He then proceeded to tell me something that i never thought i would hear. "I am giving you my bmw" I still dont believe it and feel like he will be calling me going Just kiding!. So i am blown away with excitement.

    The goodies i know of
    -M3 interior
    -M3 Dash
    -Borla Exhaust
    -BBS RS (16's Have 4 but pics only show 3 because i got spare basket weave due to pore shape of tire on the 4th bbs)
    -Bil stein Shocks, (not sure the brand on the springs but i know there quality)
    -Front and rear Sway bars
    -Front and rear stress bars
    -I cant remember what all he has done to the motor itself but i do know its a 325 bottom end off an 86 i believe, Then put in some high performance bmw pistons. And a Schrick cam. Also I remember riding down towards atlanta with him where he had a friend of his Ported and flowbenched the heads.

    -thebad
    -paint is starting to look rough. Clear coat peeling in a few small places.
    -Passenger side actuator is stuck locked
    -Sunroof is finicky
    -New tires.
    -All around clean up
    -Maint (Sparkplugs/oilchange/clean air filter/flush coolant/change tran fluid/ then timing chain in about 25kmiles)
    -Im sure i am missing a few things




    I am sure i am missing something. Anyways I took some quick pics cause i dont feel like waiting till i can borrow a camera. I will get some better pics and vid soonish. Sorry its dark out so just took pics in my garage they really are shit. Just want to share my excitement with other people.












    Also Ignore my friend Saying Crank it Bish. We can be immature :/

        Also, you are a cock with tacky taste.

        That is all.

            No shit, you Dad owned this thing for that long and GAVE it to you?

            You better study up there bucko. That car is a class act. Do NOT fuck it up!

            Go get busy on the cleaning/polishing/touching up. Make Dad proud, do that car justice.

                @ blck325is Thanks. I have always been in love with this car. Just needs a lot of touch up. But mechanical wise he built it well.
                @StereoInstaller1 Yeah i am still in shock. He knew i loved the car and he knew i would do the car justice once i have the funds. Gonna be slow on fixing it up, Will fix what i can when i can but money flow is an issue atm. Need to get a second job. Gotta love it lol
                @ryan Definantly.

                Thanks guys. :D

                      Why does it have provisions for diving boards in the rear if it was a euro?, what color is it? Shouldnt have a clearcoat peel if it was original paint as it should be single stage ( no clear)

                        @sharky if that is the case maybe the shell got changed at one point, Very possible not sure why that had happened :D All i can truly state is it originally was an euro 323. Defiantly not the original paint. its red now and original color way silver. It got painted red before my dad bought it.

                              timinng belt, unless dad changed it recently. even so, if the car sat change it asap, as that would suck to lose the motor to something so simple.
