        lagunagreen?? Can't read the sticker too well from that engine bay shot. I don't think I've ever seen that color though.

          I have never seen that color.

          Absolutely gorgeous, I am thinking this is my new favorite e30 color.


          Edit: my gf just said "and all i got was black one", i bought her 91 325iA just like yours with BSS and tan interior.

                For $2k that is bargain of the year. Crack-free dash too.

                Original paint/panels?

                      Oh how horrible its missing a wheel cap, I have some space out behind the shop if you want me to dispose of it for you.

                      Nice buy!

                            Thanks guys, I am pretty stoked on it :D The PO was OCD and as a result, covered the car when he arrived at work, and then again when it was parked over night, and every other obsessive behavior he could squeeze in between. He adhered to the scheduled maintenance schedule like a good OCDer would. :D Ultra nice guy who has moved up to an E36 M3.

                            To answer the questions:

                            The color is LagunenGrun Metallic, repainted a year ago due to aging factory clear coat, according to the seller.

                            The dash has a very small crack on the instrument cluster hood, just behind the steering wheel, just out of the driver's view ;) All the panels match, but what you can't see from the pics, because of the weird evening light, is that the front bumper is a little askew and there is a half-dollar-size dimple on the leading edge of the passenger side front fender.

                            Now the bad:

                            The PPI revealed that one of the trans mounts is collapsed.
                            The trans is leaking a small amount of oil
                            One of the trans cooler lines is leaking
                            (dern slushies)

                              Haha, I think the color is what sold my wife on the car. Chicks, I tell ya...

                              On the drive home, I was diggen the stock ride, exhaust note, steering wheel, and non-tinted windows. The stock look is, well, classic. I don't think I could deal with it on a daily basis, though :p
