Anyone going to Radwood LA on December 2nd? Its at the Peterson Museum, last year it was legit as fook so hopefully this year will be better. There was a good turnout of e30s and other classic Germans too. Me and my stupid car will be there for sure!

I was talking to my wife about it the other day. Looks like the last one was pretty cool. We might just have to join.

It's definitely worth going even if you don't show your car. They really go all out with the whole period theme and everything, it's just an all-around awesome time. I was really close to driving to the Bay Area for the one they had up there.

I'll be there!

Does anyone have a Getrag 260 transmission for my 89 325i? I visited the junkyard and what used to be an abundant amount of e30's so no more. I've had no success in grabbing one yet.

I got a set up that I'm not trying to split, but I got it advertised for $700. Don't know what you were looking to pay, from my understanding going price on trans alone is about $350 to $500 now.

Black comfort seats - $50 (sliders stuck, guy sold it to me on Craigslist and failed to disclose)
Tan cloth door cards - $50

Anyone have a recommendation on a quality exhaust shop? Preferably close to SM/West LA, or a shop that has weekend hours if it's not as close. I need to get a new pair of replacement cats installed, and possibly a resonator if there's room.

Theres an exhaust shop on the corner of La cienega/Venice. They do a lot of high end and euro stuff. Im sure they can handle your needs.

3C or something like that? I had them do the exhaust on my Roadster. It was just a 2" straight section, but they did a good job. I hate to wait a pretty long time on a Saturday

Sweet, thanks for the recommendation. One of the cats rattles and smog is coming up early next year so may as well knock both out at the same time.

Good morning SoCal e30s, had a chance to walk around the vintage show early morning on Saturday. Got to see lots of money thrown around in the e9s, e10s, e21s, e28s, e23s and the likes.
Good show, but the e23 that won *best driver car of the show* was not even on my top 5 list.

that was a comedic "best of show" at best. I also saw some very well done cars, and walked right past that car everytime I saw the shaved rear end... Seeing who the owner was makes me question HOW those votes came in... she couldve gotten my vote too if there was another way she was getting them :devil:



I also went back on Sunday for the French & Italian show.. and WOW. I could only stay from like 8:30-10:30ish so I missed Jay Leno and the crazy Fiat he brought, but I saw and got to sit in one of my favorite all time cars..
