    Goodbye, for now...(E30 collection inside)

    Gentlemen, it's been a great ride! Turning in the E30 keys and going a different route. With an expanding family I can no longer see an E30 as anything but a toy car. Hopefully, somewhere in my 2nd midlife crisis I have the funds to come back home. Here's a little tribute of e30's i've gotten to enjoy over the years. Enjoy.



    My first e30 (the one you regret selling), 1987 325is auto (bought in Virginia):










    Decided to put in a new muffler (sounded loud as fvck!):









    Then came the S50/tranny swap:


















    The day i sold it to Jest :(








    My second E30, 1991 318ic (bought in DC):
















    New suspension:










    Mandatory in all e30s:






    New wheels:









    New top:






    New headunit/clock:











    Decided to go with this for a short while, 1998 E36 M3.








    But then came back to this E30, 1991 318is (swapped to M20), bought here in NJ:









    In hindsight, this e30 was more than i can handle, she was a bonafied street/track car but I only used it to go to they gym and buy groceries, lol.


    And for now, I still roll with this, 1993 E34 M5:





    The E34 is also up for sale but that's to fund some home projects. She may stay with me however if i can swing the cash for the house stuff.







    How i've spent my last 4 years at work:

      Geez! Looks like about my story to almost T! But I havent made that final move yet...and dont plan to. I have gotta at least have one e30 stashed away. :) Good luck. Let us know how life without an e30 is, I really want to know.

      LOL, BTW, your desk looks just like mine but ive got 6+ years...at work.

          Bummer. Don't sell the M5. You can't power slide a house.

                  Ok, well, I'm back, lol.

                  As some of you may know, I have my beloved e34 M5 for sale http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?t=290049

                  So I was going to downsize to free up cash and then I saw something I couldn't pass up.

                  Here are a few notable points and teaser pics:

                      I have to ask, how was the e36 m3 as a daily? I'm considering buying one.

                          Not sure as a daily since all my cars are weekenders. I enjoyed the ride though.
