always loved that color. nice Op

Thanks! I have to be honest, I definitely wouldn't have chosen gletscherblau, but it's growing on me. I thought the car was too original to mess with the color combo though. It deserved a somewhat faithful restoration. I only changed the carpet color from tan to black to avoid stains from daily use.

wow with clean engine bay and wheels that thing is almost showroom condition. good job

Looks awesome for a first start! Just give it a little love and you got yourself a collectors item.

That paint came out great! Good job on keeping the color

Thanks, I'm pretty happy with it. I've always wanted an e30 325i restored to stock condition for a daily driver, and that's exactly what this car will be. I think these cars have the perfect combination of fun, reliability, and practicality. Since I'm going to be driving it almost everyday, the engine bay and wheels will never stay clean though. I've got a couple of other cars for track toy and show car use.

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.

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

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.

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

I've actually seen more E30 M3's roaming around Lexington than nice 325's. Looks like you have 2 of them!
