    1991 Calypso Coupe

    On my fifth E30 now. I just finished up the convertible I bought a few months ago and realized that I am not a convertible kind of guy. Don't get me wrong... I like the way they look and I like riding in them, but I don't want to own one.

    So last night I bought (sorry for the crappy pics, good ones will follow):













    Yes, it's too bad it's not a manual but the engine sounds great, the interior and body are clean, and I am back into a hardtop.

      Great color looking forward to some better pics. If you don't mind me asking how much did you end up paying?

                      Lol lots of projects going. Why not add a m30 calypso to the list. Just hope it's there when you knock a couple projects out
