    Just got my fist E30!

    Just picked it up today.

    It is a 1989 325i (manual) Alpine White 4 door

    So, some details. The car is in immaculate shape. The engine/chassis has 157k on it. The car is 100% stock and completely unmolested. Almost no paint chips, no rust, no dash cracks, no tears in the seats, EVERYTHING in the car works! Wheels are in great shape, spare has never been used! Complete tool kit (plus some extras).

    Recent work includes a new transmission!, fuel pump, water pump, timing belt, clutch, O2 sensor, injectors, t-stat.... Best part is that right before I picked it up, BMW serviced the car and inspected it and the only problems were some engine seals that had "minor leaks" and that the car needs an alignment. It does. Pulls slightly to the left.

    Had a nice 5+ hour drive home (traffic) to break her in through the mountains. Everything felt great!

    Sorry, only have crappy cell phone pictures for now. Need nice camera!

      Good start! I would freshen her up with all new suspension :) I bet subrame/trailing arm/rear shock mount/front strut mounts/control arm mounts etc are way overdue.
