    FInally, my new car

    Got home at 5:40am this morning after a 16 hour blast from Houston in the new car.

    Short list: 1991 318is, 67K, LSD. thats about it. bone stock. badgeless now. A really fun car though, I'll post full impression when I finally wake up.


    A pic or two






    It's pretty damn clean. Extremely soft, and slow. But definately has potential.

          Good luck! The last car that came from TX to NC was a piece of shit IIRC. :D

          Incredible car though - looks awesome. Any immediate plans?

            Looks VERY clean. Just fix the little dents in the front fender and you'll have a really mint E30.

              haha yeah, the head seems to be in one piece ;)


              immediate plans: already ordered a steering wheel, buying a SSK, and a spring/shock combo, cause this thing is SOFT

                Look into Paintless dent removal on those fender dents. Other than that it looks to be a beautiful example of an E30. Glad to have you back in an E30 rob.
                Just livin in the OC minus my E30

                    yup, I'm loving the silver.

                    already pulled the 318is badge off, and I'm painting the kidneys black as we speak. free mods own.

                      nice find Rob!

                      two things!

                      First, those seats are leather or what? they doesn't look like leather...

                      and I don't know well your history, I mean why did you sell your Acura( more new(year) ) to purchase this old and nice piece of car?

                      Congrats!! :P

                            yup, its vinyl.

                            as for why I did it, well I wasn't having fun with the integra, and also didnt want to have as much $$$ tied up in the car. So now I have a car I can mod and have fun with, yet still have a lot of money left over for more important things
