I changed my mind. It's 75 and sunny here in ATL, took the E30 (the first drive since October) down to little 5 to get some food and then just putzed around and ran some errands. I guess I just treat it like a motorcycle, just gotta remember the Stabil next winter.

Lack of $2500 E31s.

Mostly the ease of maintenace, and being able to say that I own a BMW.

[samurai pizza cats]

cause im not done with her yet, and probably never will be ;)

Every time I almost keep up with a minivan off a stoplight I know it was totally worth the motor swap.

Sentimental value, love, hate, and never getting remotely anything I put into it.

I actually experience the exact opposite. No one really keeps up.

For one, a lack of a good replacement vehicle. Also to me, spending 100 or even 300 dollars to keep my car running is less of a hit than 7 or 8 thousand on a replacement vehicle.

I would never sell my E30 because of how I feel behind the steering wheel.

I have had the opportunity to jump behind the wheel of many different cars, and none feel the same. Hell, none even come close. The whole thing is just... perfect.

Fuckin awesome.

Because it is a cool, fun, cute, rowdy little go-kart of a car...even broken down, sitting next to my house.

EDIT: How nasty is this! Looks like squirrel poop.



Time to get the little bitch back on the road!

[b*saint]

Because dumping 300% of the cars value in parts back into makes for killer back road excitement.

[GDA]

It is unique... being a 95 M5 pretty much no one else in NA has one even remotely close to it. And the fact that its a real fun super saloon is a real close second. Maybe have those reversed but whatever...

[MonkeyMadness]

and is now this


and is getting this
