    My first real racecar

    Hello all, like many others, the E30 has been my dream car for as long as I can remember. Last Saturday I was looking at a stock 1987 325is, when I saw this beauty sitting pretty in the back of the lot.






    I knew that this was the car for me and I would regret it if I turned her down, so she's now in my garage!



    The car is an 1989 325is E30. All that's needed is a cage for Pro3. New rebuilt m20B25 engine, new transmission, new stage 2 clutch, new 4.1 diff, Sparco Evo 2 with harness bar, and the full interior as spare parts. I currently have a MKV GTI that I'm going to stop modding and keep it as a DD. The E30 will be my track/weekend car. What do you guys think? Good purchase? This is my first E30 and first BMW so any advice or feedback is appreciated. Thank you!
