it makes the car look beast. but is there a reason for them?

swap? turbo?

picked her up in the waning days of 2010, and i'm quite pleased! i had entered the market just earlier in mid-december. put out a couple of WTBs, and two weeks later, i was in a delphin 1989 325i. awesome.

this couldn't have been possible without a number of people in the community, so i wanted to thank (in no particular order):

- the OPPO (mikek, the owner prior to the previous owner), for doing a nice job of modding this car! made it pretty easy for me picking between this and a couple of other cars that were also on the market. in the end, it wasn't much of a choice
- the PO (the other mikek) for selling it to me
- levent, kish, and anthony for keeping an eye out, getting me psyched about getting into an e30, and patiently answering my n00b questions

looking forward to learning from you all, meeting some locals in the tristate, and enjoying the camaraderie of e30 ownership!

enough chit chat -- onto pics:







cca sticker applied by the PO (i think) -- haven't decided yet whether or not to keep it. for now it stays.



aside from removing the front plate (the car is way too pretty for one -- i've decided to throw caution to the wind and risk it), have made no changes since taking delivery. that will change in time.





i hope to have more pics to whore over the course of the year, so expect to see more of this car as the year goes :D
