Default Winter Project: 1990 BMW 325is

Just picked this up as a winter car, like the title states its a 1990 BMW 325is. Has a ANSA header back exhuast, and a dinan chip. Needs a bit of love to be running 100%, but to me that was expected. Best part of the car has to be that the IS models came with a factory LSD, its a bit of fun to kick around.

Here are some pictures, opinions/suggestions welcome.






Cardinal red interior...

I need to do some basic tune up stuff to it first, put stock springs on for winter.

Once spring rolls around I think a set of H&R race springs are in order, paired with a nice set of wheels.

The Cardinal red interior looks to be in great shape. Wish I could find some close to me.

2500$ Its a Texas car, 0 rust. Also it only has a 130k on it which is pretty low for an E30.


I took the car out to a lapping day yesterday, will post pictures as soon as I find some.

wow dude great deal, and yeah 130 isn't much at all.

I just paid that much for my 93 touring and yeah, it's far from rust free.
