    Max's Vert (now with m60)

    Hey guys.. So this is my 3rd e30. sold the other two and regret every last bit of it! But we always come back..

    This ones a Brilliantrot 92 325ic, I picked it up from a friend that had it parked for a while. The problems that I know of are .. the rack leaks, interior not in the best shape, cluster loves being funny, and the top leaks.

    I don't know where I want to go with this car, but I do want to be able to have it as my summer time cruiser.

    Im thinking about swapping the m20 in the future, so I want to take care of the suspension and interior first... and then yank out the m20. It doesn't have any problems with it, so im not to worried about it yet.

                I remember seeing your brilliantrot car at the Blue lake BBQ and liked how clean it was.

                This one looks like it will be equally as nice, and you can't beat a nice plastic bumpers cabrio!
