My name is Mike, I am originally from LI, NY. Eighteen months ago I moved to Germany, about 2 months ago, purchased this...:pimp:

This is how it sat when I bought it. I will update with pics as soon as I can. I am currently trolling ebay.de for some Eta Beta's and Alpina goodies, with hopes of giving it an Alpina flavor.

Thank you...and Alexw, I hope to make it to the DTM revival, not sure yet, work is unpredictable.....but I definitely will make it to the 'Ring this year, have some Springs/Bushings/Control Arms along with some other odds and ends to install before braving the Green Hell....;)

Welcome! The car is sick. killer interior.

Few things proclaim "German Class" more than a clean, 4 door M-Tech I car. Very, very nice.

Man, I like it. So much potential.

This car is teh tits. You gotta see it in person. Mike you gonna stay the whole weekend of the revival? we could split a room. I'll get that 2.5i out to when I can so you can make your 2.7i.

[MikeDE]

I will probably not be able to get the whole weekend off, so i'll shoot up there for one day. Sounds good King, while the Seta's tq makes it a pleasure to drive around town, the lack of hp/top-end ooomph makes the car too lazy on the Autobahn, it needs more motor...When I go on vacation in June, I will be picking up all of my parts(gasket, head bolts, tune-up stuff, etc) for the 2.7i since they are way cheaper in the US. Then I see no reason that after the head is refreshed, I can't complete the swap in a weekend. And BTW, thanks for all of the compliments, I waited 4 anxious, nail-biting months for this vehicle.
