    Sweet. You're gonna need to get the single slat Euro front valance to complete that pauvre européen look.

    It's not like a 266K mile M42's gonna bowl you over with fuel economy. I think an E36 328 could match it.

    You're damn right. I've missed having 4 doors since I sold my '85 325e back in October.

    Yes, I've driven his car extensively. I owned it before he did.

    His car does have the ZHP knob. I actually prefer a taller shift knob, to be honest.

    My shifter is stock, maybe getting a little wear, but I'm really easy on shifters. I'm thinking of going with the UUC kit, just because it's so pretty and my buddy has an account with them.

    The shifter is one thing I miss from my 2002.
    I'm probably going to stick with a BMW OEM product. Probably an E36 platform shifter, but I don't know yet. My roommates' E30 325i has the Z3 M Coupe shifter and it's just way too short for daily use in my opinion. I'd like something that is shorter than stock but not short enough to be notchy.
