    Back in another E30 | Delphin / Cardinal | ACS

    My 90 325i Mtech 2 was totalled a month or so ago and I figured my days in an e30 were over. A month later, here I am back in another one, this time a vert. 87 325i Delphin / Cardinal Red with 70k miles.

    The previous owner drove it on the weekends and had good maintenance history.

    I drove about 7 hours to go pick her up, drove great the whole way back to Long Island!


    This is the car as it sat in P.O's driveway.




    Cleaned her up at work, sitting next to an 88 635 CSI!



    I still have a few parts left over from my totalled e30. First up will be 5 speed swap from that car into this one. Will try and keep this thread posted!

        Thanks guys!

        Recently rented her put to a production company for a tv series and they ripped the stiching on my rear seat middle area. Must have put 3 people back there or something. They are paying for the damages so I'm having seat reupholstered at the moment.

          Euro bumper time!

          Got around to installing the euro valence with fogs. Waiting on a few more pieces but should be done soon

              I had this same combo but in horrible shape and I didn't think it would look as good!

                The euro treatment will increase that vert's sexiness by 10 fold without a doubt. I'm excited for you because i've done this whole process myself as well. Good luck!

                  I have almost the exact same car as you, except with white pinstripes & some other small details. Love the red interior!

                      I like your vert boss. Looks like it was well taken care of.

                            Finally got the bumpers done and they make a huge difference, repainted the euro metal valence to delphin also.


                            Also had the 5 speed swap and suspension (bilstein / hr sports) done in the past few weeks. Car rides a lot better, holding off on putting my wheels on since the winter set up is around the corner.

                            Had a few mins to snap some pictures outside of work.

                            After the 5 speed swap. Thanks to Dennis @OMG
