80's-tastic 87 325is

[Pocket Chant]

So, I (finally) decided to post some pictures of my 87. I bought it off of ebay for a little too much money, but after nearly doubling the price (Fuel pumps, clutch, various upgrades) I feel much better about it. The car is really in great shape, runs almost perfectly now, and I feel like I saved it from it's previous owner.

Here are some pictures from a photoshoot of my friend's. Full Gallery.

Wow, looks really nice, how many miles?

I've heard good things about the Myster-e head, I imagine it would make for a really fun car. Any plans for suspension upgrades?

Thanks! Odo stopped working, but I'd guess about 250k+

And I completely left them out! It has Bilstein sport shocks and H&R sport springs, along with BF Goodrich Geforce Sport comp2's. Original post updated.

Great looking whip. Needs 80's style wheels!

Right on, and yeah, my friend shot these with his Hasselblad, and that's how the film came out!

Danke, I agree. I think the wheels look fine with it for now, but man, what I would give for some ACS Type IIs

Nice car! I agree with Polaris about the wheels but in the meantime some spacers would help a lot!

Nice! A couple more 80s/OEM+ upgrades (wheels!) and it will be perfect.

Killer. Well done.

decent

I love the car, leave those bumpers un-tucked! That interior looks really nice, how much did you spend to have it reupholstered?

[jw 325ic]

gorgeous. all i can say.

Thanks for all the kind words! 80's rims are definitely in the picture, but I'd like to keep the wheels at 17, and that's hard to do while 4x100

I definitely plan to! I really like the combination of the black and silver.
And the PO did it so I'm not sure.
