    My new 89 325i E30

    Here it is, the new E30.

    1989 325i (auto). 136k miles, new head, perfect paint (delphin grey), perfect interior.

    Flaws: One small dent in rocker panel part of passenger side fender, one small push from inside of driver side fender. 2 decent cracks in front bumper, one small area of what looks to be chipped paint below the license plate. Front valence a little out of wack, should be able to straighten it easily enough, if not, easy to replace. 2 small dents in hood (getting a CF hood anyway). Needs new oil pan, I'm probably just going to wait until I get my suspension kit to replace it, since the whole front suspension needs to come out. All this should be very easily fixable. PERFECT project car, especially since I can't drive it for 6 months anyway. :up:

    Got the car for $2100.00

    Here are the pics: (The car is VERY dirty)

      The auto gearbox is a flaw, you forgot that one. :)
      Perhaps you've planned to convert to manual? Sorry if I missed that..
      Looks like a promising car, even with the stock tires.

            That is the plan. I specifially bought an auto with the intention of converting it. Auto E30's are generally not driven nearly as hard as manuals, and are almost always in better condtion,
            as this one is, save the small bodywork spots.

                Nice find!
                Delphin is a great color - as long as the clearcoat doesn't chip.

                    It's funny, when they're bone stock, they look like such boring little economy cars. Do a few suspension mods, some body things here and there, and they look mean as fuck.
