    E21 content, so viewer beware!

    So I have my green e30 convertible and it is a constant. I have gone through several other e30's, e36's, e34's, and even a couple other e21's but they have all been to feed my habit!
    My #2 constant is a car I have been looking for since 2001, it is a 1982 323i grey market e21 with some tasteful mods and fresh paint. I had to make a few adjustments in my fleet such as sell my motorcycle but it was worth it.

    The Good:
    *Grey market e21 323i!
    *Lowered
    *Fresh Land Rover color paint
    *Schroth 3 point harness
    *Recently replaced 2.3 engine
    *WICKED COOL Recaro seats!

    The Bad:
    *Typical maintenance to be done
    *Timing is off on engine (to be addressed asap)
    *Headers are not sealed properly to the head so some BFH massaging is in the near future.

    Purchases already for the car:
    *320is LSD Diff
    *MSW weaves (currently refinishing)
    *Hood and trunk badges

    Thanks for looking

    This is one of the most awesome e21s I've ever seen (probably cause all we got was the shit-tastic US bumpered m10 powered 320i...)

    Nice car, man.

      ^Thanks, and I have had a couple of the m10 versions but they cant hold a candle to this car. My very first BMW was a 323i e21 while I was stationed in Italy and I have been looking for one ever since!

        M20 E21's are the shit. Single headlamps and dual exhaust ftw.

          The single headlights were only on the 316i in Europe, but if it werent for that fact I would do it in a heartbeat.

              ^The plan is to convert to motoronic 1.3 in the very near future. Shouldnt be to hard just swapping over all the components.

                        whats the deal with that exhaust looking like its closed off? im not familiar with this concept.

                        sick e21 tho man, that non-AC console is the shit too. I had one in my rusty NA spec m10 e21, was my first car and looking at these pics I realized ill probably own a nicer version at some point in my life.

                          It's a Super Trapp exhaust(I think). Allows you to tune sound/flow with removable discs at the end of it.

                            That E21 is absolutely beautiful. Are the new wheels Epsilons?

                              I didn't say it was an option ;)
