    My Mauritius Blue Vert

    After years of maintaining this car for my boss I finally bought it off him. I recently sold my M3 and replaced it with a E39 M5. After one auto-x with the M5, I realized that I needed a different car to auto-x with. I'm pretty happy with it overall. All the the "expensive" stuff has already been done. All that is needed is a little love and some creativity to take this car from 90% to 100%.



    Here are some old pics of the car:





    Here is are two pics Spencer took of me driving it back in in 2009 at the Socaleuro meet.





    BTW, its powered by a 240whp OBD1 S52.

    I was next door and decided to stop by randomly and ask if you guys had a e34 oil pan, your boss asked for what car and I said e30 swap. He proceed to take me back and show me his cars. Very cool guy and car looks great:up:

        I spoke with Maurise (sp?) from GMG few years ago when this car was for sale, if it wasn't for shipping, this car would be on East coast by now :D

                      except for the hideous m3 vents this car is really amazing. When the weather is good, all I want to look at is clean verts like this one.

                            remove the side vents and you'll be at 95%!

                            nice car!
