Haha what a classic man. Glad to meet you. I love my 540 for turn key and comfort. But theres great back roads around here. And nothing like jumping the 325 and tearing through the twisties. Got any other E30s? And bmdubbin and I are trying to get some meets going this spring, you should come out. Also got an owner's manual from an 84. Doesn't cover cd players but is complete otherwise. It'll be a long time before I have an e30 nice enough to put an owner's manual in. Its hanging in the shop right now but if you want it its yours.

Ironically, my e30 is up for sale. I'm getting ready to start a side photography business and am using the proceeds from sale as start-up capital. If I do still happen to have it in the spring, I'd be down for a meet. ... And there are some killer backroads around here. I used to work out in Isle of Wight County. Those empty rural roads near the Blackwater River make for a great weekend romp.

That's news to me. If that's the case, I'm going to tear into some old bimmers to harvest that metal.

Seriously? I want to see that car.

If I had 12k laying around I'd have an S50 swapped e30 touring in a heartbeat.

i've been to the past couple hampton roads meets. i'll probably go on the 23rd or whatever

tourings are tough to find. this is actually my second one, my first was m20 powered though. this one is slightly quicker

38 right? Damn that has to move. How're you able to find tourings, its an interesting day when I see an 02 or 320 up for sale. Can't forget an E30 baur. Love to have that as well.

I usually just sit back and watch the hilarity ensue...

my 325 feels soooooo slow compared to my 318 though. cant wait to get the 318's engine swapped into it.
