Resurrection of my coupe

[RecycledTeen]

Yes, but not a happy one. I have just sold my pride and joy. :( It was really tough to see it drive away for the last time. Im going to keep this post short as its not too much fun, after all that car and i have been through, to write about. I will use its funds to focus on the cabrio and maybe another project that I have been longing for for a while. These are the last pix I took...last weekend. So long my friend.

What? Wait? Bummer! Guess I was too far down the waiting list...

On to the next phase!!! Stroker stroker stroker

Ha, not in the plans. Ive been in one and for the amount of work/money it would be 24v again. Its going to be S5x or nothing...so far. Who knows what I will do with the engine in the cabrio. Plans are still holding firm with new leathers and a 5spd swap. After that, not sure. the M20 is going to stay for the time being.

Updates? I changed my oil. :) But seriously, I recently got back from the 2013 Vintage at the Vineyards meet. I had a great time as always. It was my 7th time but the last 4 times, I took my cabrio. Not this time. Since an autox and parade laps at VIR were planned, I knew that the coupe had to go. I have never done autox nor tracked the coupe so the plan was to get a GoPro to document my 1st's. What a blast! The car performed perfectly. Everything was wel balanced.

Anyways, here are some vids. Not the greatest audio but its at least something.

1st attempt at autox...


2nd...


3rd...


And the VIR (spirited) parade lap. Not sure why the GoPro cut this clip in half but thats what happened

Pt2


Cheers!

Just through it all. A lot of good stuff!

[Vdubmt]

Yeah that sounded stupid. Lol. I meant on this side of the state there doesn't seem to be too many. I could be totally wrong but I haven't seen too many e30s in the Winston/ Greensboro area at all. I met one of the forum members from King but that's all I've really seen. Raleigh/ Durham look to have a pretty good BMW scene.

Just read through all 11 pages of this. Awesome build. Sure seems like there are a lot more e30s out your way than over this way.

Thanks!

there are a lot more e30s in north carolina than in... north carolina?

I thought the same thing so im guessing that Vdub is from the western part of NC.
