    You're gonna make a pretty penny for it...so I understand the selling standpoint....but this car belongs to you. I hope you find a way to keep it.

      Any plans on bringing any of your toys to the BMW CCA or SCCA autocrosses around here? Would love to see what a brand new E30 looks like in person.

        I've been out the HPA many times with the BMWCCA, but I have no desire to take this car out there to participate... that and I don't really want to drive it on the freeway for fear of rock/debris damage. Houston's roads are a filthy mess.

                  Maybe a vinyl clear guard for the front if you can swing it.

                    It's not like I want the car to live the life of a garage queen, its built to be driven. If you watched the video you know I don't hold back there :-) but I also don't want to get the paint all chipped up before offering it for sale...

                    As such surface streets and back roads are best bets for run in and test driving. Its up to the next guy to pop her cherry there....

                    I remember driving my old Lachssilber 87 328iS from Oregon to Houston. It picked up innumerable stone pits on the trip. Granted interstates are generally much cleaner, but really.. Houston's highway system is ridiculously littered with debris. I go through 2-3 windshields a year on my E39, and the freshly resprayed front end that is less than 2 years old already looks like it was adjacent to a car bombing....

                      Finally was able to see the video man. You have one beautiful ride love every square inch of it.

                                ^Driving in Texas (at least Houston, San Antonio, and Austin) sucks due to constant construction. Gravel trucks all over the place. While not as prevalent as Jordan's issues... I've done 3 windshields on various cars we've owned over the last 3 or 4 years.
