And no I don't mean drugs, lol.
A few of you may remember this pic from the last time I was here:
She was my first. But sadly, at the end of the first summer I was still so ignorant of common BMW problems(I was probably only a guibo and csb away from curing the noises that scared me) that I sold her for a stupid low sum and attempted to move on.
I went through a few cars, an E36 318ti, an E28 535is, and....a 1.8 Miata...but none of them gave me the feel I wanted. You know what I'm talking about; that damn E30 chassis, no matter what else you drive, just feels right. Fuck spec sheets and lap times, I just wanted that feeling back.
Enter, My new bucket:
My new-to-me 325es that I paid way too much for. Nice paint, except for the horrible rust in a couple places, along with random bits that don't work.
Picked up some seats from a local yard, apparently they've had them for a few years.
Don't have any other pictures just yet. This was all I could get with my cell before my luck hit (barely 24 hours in). The brakes sucked absolute ass, and seeing as I figured it was the Bush Sr. era fluid in the reservoir my friend and I proceeded to flush it. An hour after the job was completed, I tried leaving my friends place, and the brakes were stuck like I was standing on them. Just gonna try and find some used calipers, rebuild them, throw em on, and cross fingers.
Good to be back.
