    Another one

    Ended up trading the e34 for an e30 vert. This car was another club members here in Houston. He bought it out of San Diego last year and I flew down there and drove it back for him. Been telling him I wanted it since then. He decided he needed a more family friendly car since he has young twins so we decided to trade.

    Of all e30's I've had I've never had a red one (other than a calypso one), it's starting to grow on me. This is easily the nicest e30 I've ever had. The paint is great, interior is near perfect, and it drives out very smooth and tight.

    It came with the factory weaves but I tossed the BBS off the black vert on it for now.

    Here's a few pics, let me know what you think. First thing I'm going to do is paint the front valance back to the red it's supposed to be, next thing is to hit the trim with some SEM black since someone decided to use gloss black on it at some point. I have some Eibach springs in the garage so those may find their way on it too.

          Everything works great. I need to adjust the top a little to get it to go down all the way but it goes up all by itself.

            I wouldn't mind a vert some day, I've always been scared away by all the extra things that would need to be fixed/replaced. $$$

            GL with it!

                Nice looking car, after the springs it should look even better. The shift knob looks funky though.

                    I saved that from my e34 and I liked it in there, doesn't really go with this car though. Need to do something different.

                        As stated originally, I'm going to paint the valance back to red, not sure why it's black.

I've seen pics of e30's rolling through africa with at least 15-20 africans on them with ak-47's. WILD. its in the african blood. Hope this wasn't too racist, forgive me as I am intoxicated.
