Yup. Stays in the garage. Never been driven in rain or any bad weather. Made the mistake of TRINA refresh a few things on my M20 engine which lead to lots of disassembly. Gotta fight the urge to refresh and redo every stinkin component and just get it back together now that the "top-down" weather is here.

Mine has become one in the last few years, but not of my own doing, it's because I work 6 days a week, and just about the only thing I'm ever driving is my work vehicle. But hopefully, that should be changing in the next few months, it's looking like we might be going to a 5-day work week.
Not being able to drive it whenever I want breaks my heart. I walk out in the garage to get something, and it stares at me like a puppy.

Hell no. Mine sits under a tree in my driveway on the chicken farm I live on. That doesn't mean I don't respect it. I just think that cars, E30's being a big one, should be DRIVEN and not stowed away in a garage where it rots until it's time to roll it out and snap some more Instagram pics or take it out to a car show.
Like those old guys with beards and Hawaiian shirts with pictures of cars on them that love their '57 Chevys so much that they only drive them once a year. Because they're SOOOO special and rare and expensive.

Mine is going to be one but only temporarily. I am going to miss driving it but after the 2.7i + turbo swap, I know the wait and effort will be worth it.1989 325i - 2.7i, Holset H1C, 60lb injectors, whodwho MS-PNP.

If I didn't have too many parts in the garage to fit the car in...
The iS has been sitting since october. Still needs tires, camber plate bearings, and another power drain issue taken care of.
The iX was bought as a winter beater in september, but wasn't driven until march because of issues, and even now needs lots of TLC (steering ujoint, throttle cable, hood release, shifter rebuild, front calipers)
The m3 shell just sort of sits there under its car cover and collects footprints from the neighbor's cat.Originally posted by priapismMy girl don't know shit, but she bakes a mean cupcake.Originally posted by shamesonUsually it's best not to know how much money you have into your e30
