    Whats up all? I had a 325is I sold to a guy in PA a few years back and he sold it to a guy in the Chicago area. Has anyone see this car kicking around? Car is s50 swapped with Houndstooth. Looking to buy this car back even if the owner is not looking to sell. Thanks!!

    Rob Siegel, "The Hack Mechanic" will be attending the show and will speak and sign copies of his new book after.

    Don't miss it.

    Definitely recommend the surgery, it's worth it.

    Hi Chicago. I've been on this site for a long time, learning everything, not posting much, mainly because in my haste to join I chose such a lame username (and seems like the moderators don't like to be bothered with name change requests). My name is Ian, I live in the Ukrainian Village. I bought a 1990 325is in 2011 and love it, and love the e30 community and BMW community a lot as well. Since then I added an e46 touring in 2013 from Pennsylvania and drove home through the Blue Ridge Mountains and Smoky Mountains.

    bmw325_num99, I checked out your website, that 1991 Pontiac Trans Am GTA must have been fun! Some of the best stock wheels to come out of that era in my opinion as well.

    That is probably what it would take. I miss them. I am thinking something small for my garage but that I can fit in:

    Miata
    e30
    Mr2
    Wrangler
    rx7
    fj40
    4runner
    bmw airhead bike
    bmw f650/450gs bike
    or nothing and rent a fun car on Turo when i want it. There is a Z4 M coupe on there, for example.

    Who has any better ideas for me?

    Greetings, Thor! Sounds like a nice drive home from PA. I agree about my Trans Am wheels, so nice.

    Thanks!

    Not in the area, but LukeG Workshop is top notch.
