    My '89 325i Touring

    Hi people, new here.

    Thought I would throw up some pictures of my car since i've been lurking here awhile.

    Anyway, it's a manual 1989 325i. I have owned it for around 2 years and i'm still loving it.







    And here it was last weekend on a Christmas tree mission. Hotrod style, because my new 16x7.5 AC's wont clear the calipers on the front! :x

                    Cheers for the props.

                    I picked it up when it was like this, with factory recaros and 15" weaves!


                    The previous owner was an independent BMW mechanic who also built Hillman Imp racecars. This was his tow wagon He had recently done the manual conversion with the box and engine out of a M325i with only 60k on the clock, installed cruise control, performance chip and upgraded the rear suspension.

                    I've slowly been making it my own - new suspension in the front to level it out, all red tails, blah blah. Next on the list is to get the front AC's to fit, get some coilovers, colour-code the front lip and skirts and replace the nasty exhaust tip it has on it.

                    I had a rusted hood on it for a while but that was gay.




                    I'll update sans shopping basket and when I get the front AC's on.

                            Sweet, gotta love the Touring :) Good to see another one.

                            I'm glad you put the chrome kidney's back on as well as removed that ugly roof rack. Also funny to see you towing with it lol would be a strange site to see that towing a boat or race car around haha

                              Very beautiful. I normally am content with what I have but i will have to say that I am very very jealous. Aside from the fact that Im a sucker for alpines, its a touring. One day I wish to be able to acquire one of these
