    I had been lightly looking around for an e30 or e36 for a few months. I've got some ideas for a new project and a 3 series would make for a great platform. Rewind a couple weeks ago I get a call from my dad who was visiting some family in Chicago. During the call he informs me that his cousin would like to gift his 1991 318is to me. It had been given to him as a college graduation present brand new in 1991 by a close family friend. He has kept great care of it over the years but has a couple other cars now and he just doesn't drive it anymore. So last weekend I flew up to Chicago to check it out. Let's just say I was blown away to see how clean it was. I'll let the pictures show you.

    Dang, thats clean! Its nice seeing some stockers pop up now and then. A little attention to the front valance and some floor mats, makes it cherry.

      I am jealous, I wish mine was that clean. Has it spent it's entire life in Chicago? Hard to believe if it has, it still looks new!

        Oh wow.
        I would do absolutely nothing to that car for the exception of Euro accessories if it was in my possession.

        Congrats!

          What a gift!

          ...perhaps you would like to re-gift it to me

              Its a bit Chicago underneath. Theres a hole in the muffler but all the bones are there. I'm pretty excited to have possession of it now.

                        Rare that someone is given a car and they take that good care of it. Great score. I wouldnt do a thing to it other than a twincam turbo swap
