I sold my s2000 and picked up a new daily. It's an 88 E30 M3. I have to say I was pretty fortunate to find one in it's condition. Here are some pics. I will post more once I give it some TLC and some mods





Sexy lines...



TWO TONE!!!







Came with a supersprint exhaust



Timeless...





engine shots




And this is how it sits right now...

It has about 180k miles or so. However, I have about 12 years worth of receipts and the engine runs pretty strong.

Sorry, let's just say I am a bargain shopper and a local guy gave me a good deal

Sweet pair of M3s. I hope to replicate your situation in about a month. Current sled is an E46 and I have a line on an E30.
