My 1985 325e In Black and White

[CW325]

Took some pictures of my recently acquired e30. Havent really done much aesthetically other than euro grills, put the OEM wind deflector back on and cleaned it up a bit. Also installed new muffler and repainted the rocker panels. Let me know what you guys think! :)

Yeah it is. If you don't have much work on your e30 or are doing a full restoration with pics, they do not care. Other than that, your car appears to be in great shape from what its noticeable on black and white pics. I admire stock cars, known to be called by myself as virgins.

Nice start. Love early models .

What happend to the other one ?

[E30Gus]

I like it! Looking for another e30 so I can keep it stock and DD it. Only thing I may do is lower it a little bit.

Nice pics :up:

There's nothing wrong with a clean, stock E30. There's just so much room for improvement that it's hard to keep them that way.

No shame on a stock car. Maybe some closer pix. Its getting very hard to find people that have a car like yours and not mod it. Its almost a breath of fresh air. Though, some 14" weaves would look nice. :)

Nice to see a stocker once and a while. Well executed.

[CW325]

Thanks guys I plan on keeping it stock because Its something you dont see so often especially on the forums plus I just love the clean simple look of it. I wish more people would respect keeping e30s stock. I do agree some weaves would look nice though! :D Also I just realized I havent posted any interior shots yet so I'll try and take some.

Any other ideas for some "OEM+" mods? I'm leaning towards some H&R OE sports for the summer.

broseph, what happened to the other early with steelies?

It's refreshing to see a stock clean e30. But do agree with putting a set of weaves on it.

Fog lights....very classic. And for springs, maybe find some M3 springs just to bring it down just enough to level it off.

BTW, what color is it?

[CW325]

If I could find a set of weaves locally I'd probably pick them up and refinish them for the summer.

Is it still possible to buy new m3 springs from bmw? I'd rather not spend money on used stock springs. I think the color is Polaris metallic but I'll have to double check.

Still have my black car for those who asked.
