      My bigger issue is my cars carpet. I just picked up new sports seats and they are in great shape. Interior projects to follow after suspension is rebuilt and car is driveable. Again; very clean interior it looks great.

        Thanks for the welcomes and compliments everyone. Next big steps are a new front bumper and paint.

          Wow I haven't seen any m3's. My daily is pretty rough but the project is in great shape. I like the one you scored, looks good.

            Well carpet is about $350 and isn't too hard to install.

              I have seen 4 E30 M3's which seems like a lot. But then again there just as many Lotuses.
