Glad you're happy with it, sir. It's a nice looking ride.

Thanks, here's a pic...oozing potential. I'm now ready for one of three planned upgrades: german audio specialties stereo install with e28 lukebox, euro bumpers, and bbs rc090s. Talked to Luke today and leaning toward the stereo first but would be interested in thoughts on what my priorities should be. Mechanically the car is tip top and the interior is very clean.

Lukebox. You'll have no idea how you ever lived without it.

My vote is for wheels, but I say something other than RC090s. Some staggered alpinas would look amazing.

Bumpers first. And a Billy Boat exhaust. You wont want a stereo because you'll never want to cover the sound of the car.

[e30austin]

Billy boat or UUC. Not sure how much UUC makes for exhausts on E28, though.

This. I love mine.

The car has a Hartge exhaust: that coupled with the euro dirty m30 and it sounds pretty nice as is.

Thanks for the input everyone, I'm going to go ahead with the full stereo upgrade by german audio specialties. I figure I'll get more enjoyment out of that than any cosmetic upgrades that I won't even be able to see while I'm driving.

Word. A stereo will make the driver happy, but so would a new set of wheels ;)

In other news, picked up an iPhone 5s today to replace my dead 4s. Sure is weird having a phone that functions properly...

Is it even bigger and have no new features?

[e30austin]

Actually, it does more shit I didn't need or want. Considering downgrading to iOS 6 so it can be the way I used these phones for 6+ years.

That sounds like a terrible idea. You may as well unlock it

[e30austin]

No care. Just miss iOS 6.

I gave up with it at iOS 3.1.3.. It doesnt look much different on the potato 5S

[e30austin]

I still have a 3G on 3.1.2...refused to upgrade. Hahahaha

God, you kids are living in the future.

My Toshiba Portege daily driver is still on Win95. And your damn gifs are slowing down my 56k
