    98.9% of that is stance related.

    Haha. The copper car, much like my current E30, was purchased as winter/daily transport. I actually never intended to mod it at all, but one drunken night a few years back I pulled the trigger on those Type Ts. The subsequent 3 rounds of suspension work were merely follow through. Nitpick all you want, but as this thread shows, there are still almost no early cars sitting like mine did. Spacers or not.

    Although I would have liked more under the hood, it would have been useless... the car was at the ragged edge of drivable at that height, and well, I liked the MPG the ETA gave me. As for not being "worthy of the attention it garnered" that's your opinion, and that's fine. I personally don't think 99% of the E30s out there are all that special. Hell, I even told the editor of PBMW that I didn't think my car was that big a deal.

    I won't be doing another patina-related car... but my buddy Patrick(who helped me with the paint on the copper car) did his Mk2 GTI in a bronze that patina'd black. He let it go natural and with the rain and fall leaves it came out pretty damn cool. Much more subtle than the E30. That car had a VR6 swap in a cleaned bay with an LSD/six puck clutch and was pretty damn violent.
