What is the part number on the boot? What car is it off of? M3?

First time Autocrossing. It was awesome! I don't know why I hadn't tried it out a long time ago. I am already looking forward to the next event in August.

[mike.bmw]

Definitely a good time. It would be great to coordinate a bunch of e30s at Katie's one day.

My only problem is that whenever I see your car and Sail Boat's car, I start seeing more things that I want to fix/upgrade on my own car. :)

[Zeemz]

After several failed attempts due to weather and schedule conflicts, I finally met up with Mike.BMW and Sail Boat and Katie's Cars and Coffee. This was my first time going, I can't believe I never went before. It was amazing. I know Cars and Coffee is a pretty standard thing around, but for those of you not from around DC, this one is in Great Falls, which is ranked the 3rd richest town in America, so there are some pretty awesome cars that show up. It was way beyond the level of any event I had ever been to before. Here are some pictures and videos of Katie's Cars and Coffee on Instagram and on Youtube.

It was great seeing Mike.BMW and his super clean 318is and getting to check out Sail Boat's amazing low mileage Japanese imported 325i. Hopefully we can get a few more local E30 guys next time.

I stole this pic from Mike as he took some nice E30 group shots. He has several more in his thread I linked above.

Beautiful car, the show looks like a blast with all the Vintage cars lurking the streets.
If I could make one suggestion, paint the underside (molding?) of your iS skirts black, it really makes it blend better imo..

I forgot you knew dan, what a small world! I saw his white car in Seattle and that made me buy a set of RC090's. His car was clean (and I bought the houndstooth door cards from him)

He said he thinks his Alpine 325ixcar was Nicks car at the time when you bought the door cards. But he did stop by in his E28 535is to buy the power antenna off "our" car when you swapped in the shorty! Definitely a small world!

Dan helped settle my nerves about buying a car all the way on the other side of the country without seeing it in person. He saw it a few years before when he bought the antenna and said it was it was an amazing car!

I didn't take a lot of pics at the actual show. I was too distracted by all the cars and the heat, but there are tons on The Vintage Facebook page. Some of the galleries people have posted were buried with other post. So the links below are a couple of the galleries that you can jump right into with lots of great pics.

If you are on the fence about going next year don't be. Awesome cars and awesome people, it doesn't get any better than this.

Made my first pilgrimage to The Vintage this year and already have the calendar blocked off for next year. It was amazing and already looking forward to next year. I met tons of great people went on several amazing drives and saw countless amazing cars.

First three pics came from the FB Galleries. The rest of the pics came from a new friend AD - https://www.instagram.com/kixnwhips86/ He also is the photographer for the National Capital Chapter of the BMW Car Club of America Instagram page.





My friend Dan's (danielmp) awesome 325ix with over 300K on the clock and still looks amazing. He sold it over 8 year's ago when he moved from Seattle back to VA and just bought it back this year and had it shipped to NC. A great friend and also the guy that got me hooked on E30s 6 years ago.


It was a time warp driving around near the hotel








Got invited to tag along with a couple guys and went on an awesome drive from Asheville through the mountains to the BMW CCA Foundation in and Zentrum Museum at the BMW plant in Greenville SC











Pulled up to the Zentrum Museum and parked right out front in the no parking zone for a photo shot and the employees loved it and didn't care that we parked there even while we toured the museum.








And the group continued to get bigger... Bradnic also joined with his amazing vert


Me and Raphael (Arch4ngel) pulling out of lunch. Awesome black S52 coupe, super clean with BBS RZs and some sweet Recaros.

[Zeemz]

I have to admit, I've been hunting for a nice set of BBS RS since I saw your car in person. :devil:

I may want to pick your brain about how/where you acquired/refinished yours at some point soon.

Anytime, I'll keep my eyes peeled as well.

Very clean e30 and BBS RS wheels are a beautiful combination

Beautiful example Zeemz and mike.bmw

I'm in love with this E30!

:bow:

Thanks guys!

So happy to see she went to a great home! Funny you put Strömung exhaust on it, thats what I had on it at one point but sold it to buy Megasquirt and a full Revshit manifold back when I was considering turboing the M20.

She is a special car, happy to see it being taken care of!

Thank Bryan! I was lucky to be able to be her next owner. And the Strömung sounds glorious!
