    ...and then their were two.

    Well, Ive been wanting a vert even before I got my coupe but Im glad I got the coupe first...more on that later. I finally found one a few miles from me in mint condition.

    Some Stats:
    1991 325i Convertible
    Birth date of 4/15/1991
    GLETSCHERBLAU METALLIC with leather INDIGO LEDER interior and blue top.
    Heated seats
    Electric top...that works!
    151K

    The PO garaged it for 10 years and all service up to date. New shocks, brakes, tires, TB, hoses, valve adjusted...etc. It even came with a nice alpine deck with Infinity speakers and remote. I like the stock radio for looks but it is nice to have a cd player in a car again. It drives so smooth and straight. The leather has its normal separation on the back seat...minor.

    I wasn't really picky about the color when looking but I saw the condition of this one and I had to buy it. I love the blue top and the blue interior is growing on me. Only upgrade was some H4's. When I got the car, the exterior was close to spotless minus some minir scratches and hood chips. The interior was quite tho opposite. I spent 9 hours cleaning it out with tooth brushes, q-tips, and tooth picks. It was covered with armor-all on top of dirt on top of armor-all and so forth. Lexol and I spent some serious time in it

    I have some moderate plans for this car but its a great stock car.

    The worst of it may be the auto. Not only that is that this car has some weight to it. If it wasn't for my coupe for reference, I would think that an e30 was just an ok car. I know many people can get some serious performance out of a cabbie but I cannot with my budget. When it comes down to it (for me anyway)...Coupe for the corners, cabbie for the cruisers.

    Here are some quick pix...enjoy.

    Here is it in my garage. It rained for 5 days the day I got it.


    Left is clean right in nastyness


    Its a wonder what a little soap and tooth brushing will do.


    You can prolly tell which seat has been cleaned.


    And the outside.







    ...and the their were two.

            dam I love silver e30's, oh and the vert is nice to : )

            and it must be nice to get one that doesn't need the whole front end redone, and from the looks of it you know what to do with the stance.

                man, i want two E30's.

                that vert is super clean, are you going to drop it? it looks like it has the rear end sag mod...or it may just be the angle

                  ^^^ Verts are just heavier at the rear than a regular E30. If you change the suspension i will change the way the verts handles, But last week i installed a e36 rack on my vert and its a different car all around. Feels more like a 2dr maybe better.

                      I want to put some sport suspension on it but the whole thing is new and is pretty tight. The shocks were replaced with billy HD's. Not to mention the tires are new and the wheels have no rash. I guess we will see.

                      Yeah, its nice to have options. Your Kopis do look good. Im just not sure if more weight added on. Do you notice a big difference?

                        BTW, pick up a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser to clean your door panels and other parts of the interior. It's amazing how well they work for cleaning vinyl. It puts all other products to shame. Magic Erasers work great for wheels too.

                              Very nice. The interior needed the attention, now the M badge needs attention.
