    nope its a noisy ass m42, and yeah i guess over here in german land they have the batteries up front, and hopefully i will be bringing this monster back in 2015 it will then be 25 years old and the DOD will ship it no questions asked, how does a euro spec 90' 318is in the states sound? badass i know

        wow, a striped down no optioned 1990 318 is nothing special in the u.s.. I have a feeling you are ruining this car anyway.

          Money says it's a slick-top though ;)

          Here's a tip kid. Go to the picking yard outside the east gate. pull smiley headlights and euro grills/plate fillers. Sell them on here for cheap and ship them USPS on base. Make money. Meanwhile, look for a complete M-tech 2 car or touring to bring home with you instead of that lowly 318 coupe. Better yet, swap in a euro E36 M3 drivetrain before you bring it home.

            Ruining the car in your eyes and many others, but if you had seen the car's mechanical condition before i purchased it you would have been appalled. Everything i have done to it so far is in the name of fun, nothing permanent, like I said waiting to start making more money to purchase some goods to make this vechicle "worthy" until then just deal with it i do :D

                sounds good, and I really hope you do bring it back to its glory days, I just know it isnt cheap or easy, and have seen a whole lot of soldiers with huge dreams of bringing thier e30 home, and seeing it in the strip yard a few months later after a DUI and a fenderbender. (probably the story of the P/O and how you got that car in the firstplace)

                            As far as I know BMW put the battery in the trunk of 325 to give them better weight distribution to compensate for the heavier m20.
