I recently purchased a 1990 325i coupe.

Looks clean! Nice pick up!

Also, I see you're in El Paso. I'm in Las Cruces for school, maybe I'll see you around!

Yeah I bought the car when I returned from Korea and drove it to El Paso, where I live now. The engine is strong and I did 90 the whole way here without a problem. I wish it was a manual but I got such a good deal on the car and it was so clean that I couldn't pass it up. The clear coat is fucked so I do need to repaint it, I might repaint it the same color for the sake of ease. As I said I wish the car was a manual, I am interested in doing a swap but it is my DD and sole vehicle so I am iffy on that. especially since I don't know anyone in the area since I moved here like a week ago.

I got lucky with mine it was resprayed. But I have a friend with a zinno and he has original paint and just rubbed and worked on it for hours and it came out fantastic. Unless you have a bunch of deep scratches I wouldn't worry to much.

I'm in the same boat... The sun down here ain't helping either...

Yeah I had inclination to paint it but I am here in El Paso and I am stationed here and single so I live in the Barracks, which means no garage.
