    My first real post

    I've made 50 odd posts saying crap like nice rims and love your car etc, etc. Thought it was time to make a real post and finally introduce the e30. It is a 1991 325is. It is fairly stock except for the soft ass kyb springs, crappy parts store shocks and a 13lb 323i flywheel. It has 177,159 miles on it and you can tell by looking at the suspention. Every peice of rubber under the car is shot. Absolutly no rust! After growing up in NY and then in Germany, that is a huge deal. It has had a repaint and it is not the best, but it is passable, a good "5 foot" car. To sum it up, it is a good basis for the madness that will ensue. The pics were taken with my wife's Nikon D40x, I wish I was half as good as the camera. I'll use you guys for practice;) The first 3 pics are right after I bought it, dirt and all. The last 2 are after a wash, claybar and wax. There are no interior pics because it is the worst I have ever seen, everything is ripped at least 5 times. BTW I'm a newb at posting pics, how do I make them show up in the thread, not just in links?

        Thanks, one of the things that drew me to this car was the color. Also I was very surprised by how hard it was to find a 5-speed coupe in AZ. They all seem to be autos and cabbys.

                      Nice color! Usually you can get away a little bit with darker wheels with brake dust, but damn, give them a wash :)

                          It does look good! Is that brake dust on your rims...or Arizona sand?
