    Ian, your collection is awesome! I can't wait for a nice spring drive when we can take some pics of some of those beasts. E30 m3 is my fav.


    Looking for a clean e30 shell for a project.

      I don't have all of them anymore...Thats most of the BMWs I've had over the last 10 years (missing another E30 M3, 325ix, and a couple of E36s). I currently have the E30 M3, E30 325is, E39 Touring, and the ZHP. I do miss most of them...especially the E34 M5. Can't keep them all I guess.

        If I ever gather the $$ for either an e30 m3 or e34 m5 I will never sell them! :) The e39 touring is awesome, I nearly bought one 2 years ago. I loved my e39 528 but it needed moar power.

        I seriously need s52 cams for my m52, someone find me some!

          I hear ya on the E39 with more power. 525i wagon is slow, even with the manual. Its a nice dd though. I'm on the fence what to do with it. Thinking:

          1. Sell it
          2. M54 3.0 swap (pretty easy)
          3. ESS supercharger for the 2.5l (also easy, but expensive)
          4. Find a wrecked M5 and go to town with it.
          5. Accept its slow, put some M tech bunpers on it, dechrome it, and lower it.

          I heard theres something like less than 200 manual tourings in the country.

            I would go with 5 and keep it closer to stock. I still regret selling my manual touring. Once I get the M Coupe paid off I plan on doing a 24V swap or looking for an E30 M3.

            Ross my issue was a loose crank position sensor that was sliced by belt in front of it.

                Well, in fairness, he did present a damn good (sacrificial) defense: his client got off from a life sentence, assuming the video info saying it's a mistrial was correct.

                    didn't get off, just postponed.

                    A mistrial just means that the trial just starts over, everything starts over, including jury selection.

                              Dammit, I wish I could go but I gotta watch kiddos tomorrow. If you happen to check out the 325 that's over there and it has the front lip grab it for me!
