3 months have passed since I purchased my 91 318i so I figured it was time to make some posts in this forum. Brief history of this E30. The car has about 150k and I have upgraded the suspension and sways. Although this car has spent it's life in Canada for 20 years it is still relativity rust free. The car came with a magnaflow muffler which made the car sound like a tuner car so we downgraded back to OEM.
Here are some pics

My attempt at keeping the rust in check


The car is missing 2 cylinders



We had a wind storm and I mad the mistake of parking near our basketball net

This car is lots of fun to drive when it isn't in pieces, the PO failed to mention allot of preexisting problems (also I was blinded by how much I wanted an E30 and wasn't as observant as I should have been when buying it). I am excited to drive it in winter, does anyone here drive their 318i in the snow?
My plans for the car
Get a LSD with a higher gear ratio (stock diff sucks at auto slalom)
Black out chrome
get euro grills and OEM kidneys
replace the majority of suspension bushings
as well as some of the many DIY projects that are on this forum
