So i finally took the plunge into the e30 m3 world. :D I am extremely excited to be the soon-to-be new owner of a 1989 Zinnoberrot M3. Loan papers are currently en route and im set to fly down and pick it up next weekend once everything works out.

It needs a little work but i think its in overall great mechanical shape, little over 105 on the chassis and it sports a fresh build with a turner 2.5 kit ~8k ago. The PO to the PO was a little over ambitious in the styling and aero department and stupidly shaved the door handles, so that needs fixing, as well as the hood antenna, and windshield washer sprayers. All fixable things tho. Here are the for sale threads from PO:

Im planning to fly down on the 9th and drive it back. On my way back, im hoping to make a small detour to Vegas and SLC and generally take it easy. I don't want to push the car too hard, but its in great mechanical shape.
Heres the route im planning on taking

Anyone have any experience with the turner kit? Im hoping to have the body panels fixed back to stock. I need to swing it by Haurys or Pacific first thing when i bring it back.
Any advice would be appreciated, i have owned e30's for several years now but i'm pretty foreign to the m3's.
