I will be joining you on sunday, picking up my new e30 after not having one for a year! I can't wait.

Enjoy the new ride.

awsome , glad to see it Gary. did you find it local?

[golde30]

alpine seems to be the comeback color...

nice sunroof wind deflector. LOL

[uofom3]

hmm... better pics need to be a serious priority

[MR 325]

Hmm, 325iS I am guessing?! Welcome back.

[GaryE30]

Yes, I did find it locally, Charleston to be exact. Alpine wasn't my first choice, but I couldn't pass up the deal. The wind deflector will be removed shortly.

The details:

1990 325is
Alpine II on Black Leather
168,000 miles
5-speed
NEW A/C
Cruise control works
Suspension is stock, but feels brand new
Wheels are 14" Borbets
New Stereo (sounds really crisp)
Triflo exhaust (in the mail)

Took my father and I slightly more than 5 hours to clean all the grime off of the car yesterday morning not including interior. We started out with quick rinse, fine cut compound, then we washed her thoroughly with Dawn dish soap, then used a nice polish to finish it off. Next weekend I'm going to wash it again with a nice car soap then apply some coats of wax.

Overall I'm pretty excited to be back in an e30. It feels so nice!!!

New pictures post detailing are in order.

The hood isn't in the greatest of shape, but I'm sourcing another one. This thing just really drives incredible and is in awesome shape!

Taking suggestions on wheel options...

How about some Kopi's? Car looks great man, Alpine ftw.

[GaryE30]

I do like kopis. Im considering an mtech 1 rear spoiler as well.
