[Turf1600]

I dig the houndstooth. I'd trade my leather interior for it.

AJ, is your rear seat M3 specific or regular e30?


Here is mine for all those who want to see something a bit "different"

Circa 2004



Present day (Front seats are in storage)

How many people really like houndstooth? It looks like a university professors blazer. I suspect that most of the admiration is due to its rarity... much like the e30 touring (it's a fucking station wagon).

How dare you utter those words!! BAN HIM :hitler::hitler:

Hounds tooth looks great, although I've never seen a decent set in real life and I don't know if I would like it more than black leather!

e30 touring with full houndstooth interior would be MMMMMM :D

Don't leave them out. The idea is to post. Yes actually that was the inspiration.

Nice! Lose the steering wheel though. an Mtech2 would look badass.

Not a fan of the houndstooth. Looks like it came out of a '82 mustang or something shitty like that. ya I know it's rare, blah blah blah...

just cuz it's rare doesn't mean it's cool. However the motorsports cloth is another matter :)

What's the story with your rear deck? Lower 3rd brake light & the triangle thing are part of the matching houndstooth stuff? I thought M3 issue was always a highmount 3rd since we have the wing.

Bingo.
Got the interior when I owned my 325is. Total cost = Free.
Moved it to my M3 when I got that for my college graduation gift.
Put the front seats in storage to prevent damage when I swapped in th Recaro's.

what is the triagle thing for anyway?

[M42Technik]

It is to hold your middle seatbelt. You click the seatbelt itself into that so it stays put. This works if you have the third belt from a non M3 rear seat.

I must agree, I am here in germany and have thrown many of houndstooth interiors in the trash in trade for the newer style. who wants houndstooth when you can have leather E30M3 interior anyway.

BTW your int. looks clean.

Wow, next time can you save the side bolster fabric and I'll pay shipping for it? I really need a new left side bolster, both top and bottom, recovered with the OEM fabric!! Please?!!?
