    My new 1990 325is

    After selling my 1990 325is 7 years ago, I made a full circle and found one that will make me happy as a daily driver. The M Coupe is getting it's rest now.
    About the car:
    1990 325is Alpine White / Tan
    157K
    New Cylinder Head
    M3 Springs / KYB Shocks
    New Magnaflow Cats
    New Cooling System
    New Ball Joints
    New Timing Chain
    Best of all... Everything works!!! Even the OBC backlight!
    Enjoy!

              I bet they had a hard time putting on the timing chain.

              e30s are like fat girls that USED to be hot, you just gotta work them out to make them hot again.

                  No chain? lol - Shows how much I know about it. Anyhow, I'll be going to bimmerfest (i live in Ventura County, so it's about a 20 min drive for me) but I'll be taking my M Coupe.

                  I paid $5500 for it. Considering the condition and work done to it, I think it was pretty fair price.

                  As far as the interior goes. Panels and dash are in excellent condition. Seats could be better. The drivers seat it not so pretty (that's why I didnt take pics of the seats.) I'm considering wet okole covers for now unless I find a nice set or even have them redone.

                        Yes, selected 1988 models and all 1989 models had ellipsoids.

                        BTW, Vroom, congrats on the purchase. The E30 makes a great compliment to the Coupe. If you tell your insurance company that the E30 is your daily and the M Coupe is now a weekend car, you should notice a savings of a couple bucks a month.

                          I wonder what the mCoupe is thinking.
